Driving Perth forward to a clean air future
The Royal Automobile Club of Western Australia (RAC WA) is steering Perth towards a future of cleaner air with the innovative RAC Air Health Monitor, the largest ambient air quality sensor network in Australia — powered by Clarity Sensing-as-a-Service.
Bringing air quality awareness to Perth
The RAC Air Health Monitor offers a visionary example for cities looking to redefine their approach to local air quality management. This mini-documentary unveils the significant impact that making real-time, localized air quality data available has player in fostering a healthier environment for Western Australians across the Perth metropolitan region.
Charting the course for cleaner air in Perth
Read the case study to discover the strategies that have positioned RAC WA's project as a beacon for effective city-scale air quality management worldwide. Learn how collaboration between government, industry, and technology partners can forge a path toward reducing air pollution and changing air quality for the better.
Establishing a network of 200 air quality sensors for Perth
This network of 200+ Node-S air quality sensors across Perth uses Clarity Movement's air quality measurement technology and Ramboll's SHAIR air quality modeling technology to provide localized, real-time air quality readings at 200-meter resolution across the 9,700 sqare kilometer greater Perth metropolitan area.

Hear from RAC Air Health Monitor stakeholders
We're going to continue to inform the community, we're going to raise awareness around air quality in our state, we're going to work with the state and federal governments and local governments to make better choices about the infrastructure they're investing in, but also their policies for the future as well around fuel quality standards and emission standards in our state, and also obviously the community every day. We want them to make informed choices about the transport they're going to use in the future.
The information we get from the Clarity sensors and the air health monitoring has helped us shape a lot of what we're doing under our sustainability pillar. It helps us understand our natural environment, which then helps us to protect and enhance it for future generations and current generations. Having access to this data helps us in one of our key objectives for the city, which is to attract residents to the city in the future.”
Having a larger network of sensors where we have a better resolution of where air pollution is worse or better will be beneficial in allowing us to change behaviors, educate people more, or do all sorts of things to improve the health of those people
At RAC we're all about leading change for the better — and what could be more important than having cleaner air to breathe for current and future generations of Western Australians?
