Environmental data is increasingly available across Europe. From air quality measurements to weather observations, cities and institutions collect vast amounts of information every day. Yet, despite this growing availability, much of this data remains fragmented, difficult to access and challenging to use in practice, especially when data from citizen science and low-cost sensors are involved.
Turning environmental data into better decisions. 🚀
#Environmental #data is everywhere, but it’s not always easy to understand or use.
The #CitiObs Decision Support System brings environmental information together in one simple, accessible platform, helping turn data into meaningful insights for communities, researchers, and decision-makers.
Curious how it works and who can benefit?
