Report from @openaq.org shows that more countries are working to improve air quality data transparency. 🎉 Unfortunately, barely over 1/4 offer fully transparent data, making it harder to build and monitor solutions. If you're using the cloud to improve this situation and I can help, let me know.

OpenAQ's most recent assessment of governmental #AirQuality monitoring and data sharing finds that barely over 1/4 of countries are offering fully transparent air quality data, impeding the use of data to drive solutions. See our blog & infographic at link.openaq.org/global-aq-da...
73% of National Governments Fail to Provide Fully Transparent Air Pollution Data
New report by OpenAQ offers insights into monitoring of air quality around the world and how the data are shared

Should there be more use of competitions and benchmarks for climate science? Why or why not?

Understanding air quality requires data, tooling, and that people actually know how to understand and use them both. Proud that we were able to support @openaq.org and @developmentseed.org to put modern data tooling to work for mobile air quality datasets.

Working with large datasets can be challenging. We collaborated with @developmentseed.org to develop new functionality to visualize and analyze large datasets like mobile air quality measurements with Lonboard, an open-source Python library for Jupyter notebooks. openaq.medium.com/exploring-mo...

I didn't see this already, so I went through my follow list and made a Starter Pack for Women+ in geo & EO - very broadly.

I'm reminded how lopsided the gender divide is still in our field when I get 1 woman follower for every 10 men. It's particularly noticeable right now.
