Polish Smog Alert invites you to a webinar on the practical use of low-cost sensors and samplers to monitor air quality in municipalities. The meeting is organized as part of the more4nature project. The starting point for the conversation will be a guide to good practices developed in cooperation with municipalities.
Participation in the webinar will help you understand how to:
- use data from low-cost sensors and samplers more effectively in your municipality’s activities;
- better plan local measurement campaigns and choose where to install devices,
- understand when low-cost data is particularly useful and what its limitations are,
- use measurement results in communication with residents and local partners,
- show the health consequences of air pollution in a simple and understandable way,
- build local partnerships around data,
- strengthen local anti-smog activities through better recognition of sources of pollution and the needs of residents.
During the webinar, the “Guide to examples of using low-cost sensors and samplers for air quality monitoring” will be presented. The publication shows how data from sensors and passive samplers can support the actions of local governments: from identifying local sources of pollution, through communication with residents, to planning remedial actions, education and creating arguments for local air protection policies.
The training is intended for eco-managers and employees of municipalities responsible for air protection, environmental policy, environmental education, communication with residents and anti-smog activities. The meeting is organized as part of the more4nature.
