This worksheet includes specific, step-by-step questions to help you define targeted air monitoring objectives 1 and develop air monitoring approaches to meet those objectives.
What is the reason for conducting air monitoring? Having well thought out questions about air quality ensures that the data you collect will be meaningful.
Air quality levels change hour to hour and sometimes minute to minute. Instruments and sensors measure these changes, but these technologies can malfunction and produce erroneous data that can look like real data.
Locating a sensor properly ensures that you’ll collect data that are meaningful and represent what you’re seeking to measure. Locating any air quality measuring device can be challenging due to atmospheric conditions, local emissions, and logistical considerations.
