RespirAR Amazonas makes smoke impacts legible
A public dashboard brings together app users’ reported symptoms during smoke events in Amazonas with estimated air-quality data and environmental map layers.
- For
- Amazonas residents tracking smoke and air quality
- Worth noticing
- Locations are grouped into areas of roughly 1 km, and low-count responses are hidden on the page and in CSV exports.
Field notes
The interface groups app responses by time period, symptom, app-calculated risk, approximate location, and exposure duration. It also provides views for air-quality estimates across 62 municipalities, explicitly noting that these come from a model rather than station measurements. Map layers and linked source material include INPE, NASA, MapBiomas, and Open-Meteo/CAMS; the page says small counts are suppressed in both the dashboard and exported files.
