Air Quality Monitoring 2.0

With a focus on breaking down barriers to federal funding, the program ensures that underserved and marginalized communities can access resources to address pressing environmental and climate injustices, including air quality monitoring. Learn more!

We are thrilled to announce that the RAC Air Health Monitor (AHM), powered by Clarity's advanced Node-S air quality sensors, has been honored with the 2024 Clean Air Society of Australia & New Zealand (CASANZ) Innovation and Excellence Award in the Industry Excellence category. 

Community Air Grants (CAGs) from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) can provide up to $500K in funding. Learn more about the Draft Cycle 5 Request for Applications (RFA) and how your community can benefit — the RFA opens on September 3rd, 2024, and the deadline for applications is November 1, 2024.

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.

We are thrilled to announce that starting April 2024, the South Coast Air Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD) is now integrating data from Clarity’s Node-S air quality sensors into their cutting-edge, real-time Air Quality Index (AQI) model. This model operates across a detailed grid of 1,218 cells, each 5 kilometers square, providing localized air quality updates to the residents of the South Coast AQMD region.

Discover how local air quality is transforming real estate value, emerging as a key asset for properties and a major consideration for buyers and investors seeking healthier, more desirable urban environments.

We asked Drew Hill, Data Science & Applied Research Lead at Aethlabs to help us take a deep dive into black carbon air pollution, exploring the science behind this air pollutant, its origins, its impacts, and the urgency & importance of accurate black carbon measurement.

This certification marks a significant milestone, ensuring that Clarity's monitors meet the highest data quality standards and can be relied upon for indicative ambient air quality measurements. The MCERTS certification comes as no surprise given Clarity’s impressive collocation results around the world, but this independent qualitative and quantitative verification for our air quality measurements reinforces Clarity's commitment to providing the most accurate and reliable air quality monitoring solutions on the market.

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.
