Event - Air Pollution Data Management (Delhi, November 25-26, 2016)

OpenAQ (openaq.org), in partnership with Care for Air, (careforair.org), an independent clean air awareness and advocacy platform and Urban Emissions (urbanemissions.info), is coming to New Delhi to introduce our open-source global air quality data platform (github.com/openaq) and convene a diverse and passionate group of open air quality data enthusiasts! We'll hold sessions for participants to introduce the platform and what others in our community around the world are already building. But most importantly, most of the workshop will consist of sessions where participants will brainstorm together new ways to use open data to fight 'air inequality' in Delhi, India and the world. The workshop will be collaborative, fun, and impactful.

Who should apply to attend: We're looking for 30 software developers, air pollution + health experts (atmospheric scientists to epidemiologists to medical doctors), journalists, artists, policy-oriented individuals, government air quality folks, students, and open environmental data lovers to join us. Most of all, we're looking for people willing to genuinely connect and work with others outside of their sector to build awesome stuff. That's where we think the magic happens.
