This funding call aims to develop innovative and advanced systems for monitoring and modeling air quality to support revised EU policies under the Ambient Air Quality Directive. The initiative aligns with the European Green Deal and zero pollution objectives by fostering solutions that improve air quality monitoring accuracy, enhance data comparability, and provide real-time assessments of air pollution. Proposals are expected to focus on innovative, cost-effective approaches to monitor and model both regulated and emerging pollutants, leveraging technologies like AI, low-cost sensors, and satellite data. Applicants are encouraged to collaborate with existing projects, initiatives, and communities to maximize impact and avoid duplications. Results are intended to aid public authorities, researchers, NGOs, and citizens by delivering actionable data, fostering healthier behaviors, and supporting evidence-based policymaking.
