ABSTRACT Crowdsourcing is traditionally defined as obtaining data or information by enlisting the services of a (potentially large) number people. However, due to recent innovations, this definition can now be expanded include ‘and/or from range public sensors, typically connected via Internet.’ A large and increasing amount being obtained huge variety non‐traditional sources – smart phone sensors amateur weather stations canvassing members public. Some disciplines (e.g. astrophysics,...
Abstract. In June 2009, 22 spectrometers from 14 institutes measured tropospheric and stratospheric NO2 the ground for more than 11 days during Cabauw Intercomparison Campaign of Nitrogen Dioxide measuring Instruments (CINDI), at Cabauw, NL (51.97° N, 4.93° E). All visible instruments used a common wavelength range set cross sections spectral analysis. Most were multi-axis design with analysis by differential spectroscopy software (MAX-DOAS), whose non-zenith slant columns compared examining...
Abstract Air quality and heat are strong health drivers, their accurate assessment forecast important in densely populated urban areas. However, the sources processes leading to high concentrations of main pollutants, such as ozone, nitrogen dioxide, fine coarse particulate matter, complex areas not fully understood, limiting our ability air accurately. This paper introduces Clean for London (ClearfLo; www.clearflo.ac.uk) project’s interdisciplinary approach investigate poor elevated...
Abstract. From June to July 2009 more than thirty different in-situ and remote sensing instruments from all over the world participated in Cabauw Intercomparison campaign for Nitrogen Dioxide measuring Instruments (CINDI). The took place at KNMI's Experimental Site Atmospheric Research (CESAR) Netherlands. Its main objectives were determine accuracy of state-of-the-art ground-based measurement techniques detection atmospheric nitrogen dioxide (both sensing), investigate their usability...
Abstract. Nitrogen dioxide is both a primary pollutant with direct health effects and key precursor of the secondary ozone. This paper reports on development, characterisation test flight Atmospheric Dioxide Imager (ANDI) remote sensing system. The ANDI system includes an imaging UV/Vis grating spectrometer able to capture scattered sunlight spectra for determination tropospheric nitrogen (NO2) concentrations by way DOAS slant column density vertical measurements. Results are shown over...
