OpenAQ
Air quality monitoring
Our mission is to fight air inequality by opening up air quality data and connecting a diverse global, grassroots community of individuals and organizations.
The idea for OpenAQ came from observing the impact of a lone air quality monitor producing open data, set up by the U.S. Embassy in Beijing.
It spurred OpenAQ co-founders, Christa Hasenkopf, an atmospheric scientist, and Joe Flasher, a software developer, to set up a small open air quality project in Ulaanbaatar along with Mongolian colleagues.
Eventually, they and a community of open data lovers from around the world decided to see what would happen if all of the world’s air quality data were made available for the public to explore.
