Vallano, D., E. Snyder, Vasu Kilaru, E. Thoma, R. Williams, G. Hagler, AND Tim Watkins. Air Pollution Sensors: Highlights from an EPA Workshop on the Evolution and Revolution in Low-Cost Participatory Air Monitoring. EM Magazine. Air and Waste Management Association, Pittsburgh, PA, (December):28-33, (2012).
Impact/Purpose:
This article summarizes the findings from the EPA's Apps and Sensors for Air Pollution Workshop that was held March 26-27 of 2012. The workshop brought together researchers, developers, and community-based groups who have been working with sensors and apps in a variety of settings. In addition to providing a forum to hear about successes and challenges from these early adopters, the ASAP workshop outlined potential solutions for some of these challenges. This workshop informed OAR and OECA of the changes that are occurring related to air monitoring specifically the advent of the democratized paradigm for air pollution measurements.
