This blog from the Clean Air Catalyst emphasizes the importance of open data in improving air quality, highlighting that freely accessible air quality data enhances decision-making, scientific research, innovation, and public accountability. It discusses how open data allows communities to understand and address air pollution's impacts effectively, using examples like the U.S. embassy air quality monitors and local projects in cities like Jakarta and Indore.
