Nitrogen oxides (NOₓ) are a group of pollutants formed from nitrogen and oxygen, primarily referring to nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂). These gases have adverse health effects and contribute to smog, acid rain, and ozone formation.
Clarity's latest advancements include the Multi-Gas and Dust Modules, Automated QC, additional Add-On Services, and an enhanced OpenMap public data sharing platform. These innovations empower organizations to collect, analyze, and share reliable air quality data.
At Clarity, we’ve heard your feedback: organizations need an easy, impactful way to share real-time air quality data with communities and stakeholders. Whether it’s about protecting public health, raising awareness, or building trust, data-sharing should be simple and effective. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our new and improved OpenMap, our revamped platform designed to turn your air pollution measurement data into actionable air quality awareness and insights — without the need for costly or complex third-party solutions.
This blog provides a recap of our recent webinar on the RAC Air Health Monitor, Australia's largest and most advanced air sensor network. Hosted by David Lu, co-founder and CEO of Clarity, the session featured key insights from Julian and David from the Royal Automobile Club (RAC) of Western Australia, and Martin from Ramboll.
This legislation allocates approximately $2 million in funds through IRA 60105 (c) Grant Program specifically for the deployment, integration, and operation of air quality sensors in communities identified as low-income or disadvantaged, highlighting a commitment to environmental justice and the mitigation of pollution's unequal health impacts.
Recently, the Greater London Authority and Imperial College London released the 2021–2022 Breathe London Network Air Quality Monitoring Report, highlighting key statistics on nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations and showcasing the impressive performance of these air quality sensors in comparison to reference monitors.
While air quality can often be poor in urban areas, various innovative approaches have been developed to improve air quality in conjunction with air quality monitoring networks.
While air pollution has well-recognized effects on the lungs and cardiovascular system, it also significantly impacts the brain, adversely affecting cognitive and mental health.
Many air pollutants — beyond just CO2 — also have an impact on climate change and atmospheric warming, opening the door for further climate change mitigation opportunities.
Because air pollution is a complex and dynamic phenomenon, measuring a wide array of air pollutants is an important part of understanding a complete view of air quality.
OpenAQ and Clarity announced their partnership to address a gap in global air quality data availability by adding data from participating Clarity networks to OpenAQ's platform.
