x UK Focus - Air Monitoring Air Pollution Mapping Added to Public Transport App
Moovit, a leading transport app, has added a timely new feature for commuters in the UK to be pollution aware during their travels. When planning journeys on public transport, Moovit users can now check the levels of air pollution on their route in the app, thanks to a partnership with CleanSpace by Drayson Technologies.
In addition to accessing air pollution information for their chosen public transport route, Moovit users can also request to be equipped with CleanSpace Tags, personal air pollution smart sensors designed by Drayson Technologies, in order to collect hyper-local air pollution data as they travel in and around their cities.
The Moovit community members equipped with CleanSpace Tags will crowdsource air pollution data wherever they are, helping to build a global map of air pollution. Members can register for their CleanSpace Tags here:

The news comes as the UK is issued with an offi cial warning by the EU regarding rising pollution levels that saw nitrogen dioxide limits repeatedly exceeded in 16 areas including London, Birmingham, Leeds, and Glasgow. An additional damning survey undertaken by Surrey University demonstrated public transport users are exposed to a much higher level of pollution than car drivers. Tube users are in fact are exposed to eight times more pollution levels than those driving to work.
Moovit Vice President of Product Yovav Meydad, said, “It is essential that commuters have easy access to information that plays a direct part in their overall health and wellbeing. CleanSpace is an incredibly smart network that allows Moovit users to be pollution aware by tracking the pollution levels along their journey anywhere in the UK. The community is also able to contribute to this huge network, mapping air pollution levels across the country, and by carrying a CleanSpace smart sensor they are effectively providing a constant data source to help us track where pollutions levels are high.”
Lord Paul Drayson, Chairman and CEO, Drayson Technologies, said, “Drayson Technologies and Moovit are two forward-thinking organisations that recognise how technology can improve our lives. With this partnership, we’re combining two areas of innovative technology, crowd-sourced journey planning data and an Internet of Things sensor network, to build information for the benefi t of the wider public. Air pollution is a global issue but through the provision of accurate data, we can help improve air quality across the globe.”

TSI Environmental DustTrakTM
Aerosol
Monitor achieves MCERTS Certification
TSI Incorporated, a global leader in aerosol instrumentation for over 50 years, expands its innovative line of Environmental DustTrak™ Aerosol Monitors. The three new models meet the Environmental Agency Monitoring Certification Scheme (MCERTS) for indicative ambient particulate monitors. Businesses creating emissions that
are released into the environment must comply with strict laws and regulations. The emissions monitoring instruments used by these businesses must meet these quality requirements. Having an MCERTS certification enables the Environmental Agency and the user to have the confidence that the instrument accurately monitors environmental emissions. The Environmental DustTrak is a real-time, near-reference solution for facilitating short or long-term outdoor environmental monitoring and is easily setup to quickly begin monitoring levels of PM10, PM2.5 or both simultaneously. The Environmental DustTrak™ is housed in a compact, robust, weather-proof enclosure for protection of the instrument. With the addition of a heated inlet, extended life pump (for monitoring higher exposure limits and minimizing maintenance) and 37mm Gravimetric filter cassette for air sample collection, longer runtimes and reliable measurement accuracy with the ability to accommodate for varying temperatures and humidity is enabled.
Additional space inside the enclosure gives the option to add other third party, plug-and-play sensors to monitor other parameters such as Metrology, Gas, Noise, etc. The platform offers excellent flexibility to suit individual project needs. The Cloud Data Management System allows all this multi-parameter data to be accessed remotely and is equipped to send alerts via text and email when user definable ambient concentration limits are exceeded. The Environmental DustTrak Monitor is built upon proven and trusted DustTrak technology that thou- sands of people use every day.
• Construction - Measure dust while minimizing downtime. The Environmental DustTrak can help keep your project on track. The instrument is field serviceable, contains replaceable photometers and has a long pump life. Monitor your project 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
