Description:
Traditionally air monitoring was the purview of governments (a few central site monitors) and researchers (focused research studies). Now the proliferation of “democratized” decentralized portable air sensors is disrupting the monitoring landscape with thousands of data points and “big data” volumes. If we can leverage all these resources in the near future we may approach the ability to delineate an exposome for a limited number of air pollutants. In parallel, there is a need to harmonize data from mobile health technologies and envirosensingdata streams. Air sensors domain currently disorganized in terms of transparency in data quality and data standards.
