2022: Understanding Urban Landscape Effects for More Actionable Hyperlocal Air Pollution Estimates (Environmental Defense Fund)

Improving air quality in cities in the U.S. and worldwide is one of the key aspects of building sustainable and healthy communities. Researchers will harness data collected by Google Street Maps to assess air pollution at the pedestrian level. After the first year, this research will establish the foundation for several future research directions.
