NASA’s Multi-Angle Imager for Aerosols (MAIA) mission is deploying sensors in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to provide detailed data on the city’s air pollution. Ten sensors have been placed throughout the capital to measure particulate matter, aiming to create one of the most comprehensive pollution maps of the city.
The map of Addis Ababa shows the locations of 10 air sensors being utilized by NASA’s Multi-Angle Imager for Aerosols (MAIA) mission. These sensors are designed to provide a detailed look at the city’s air pollution levels.
Over a three-year period, the sensors will measure particulate matter that is 2.5 micrometers or less. This data will contribute to a more thorough understanding of air quality in Addis Ababa and potentially inform public health initiatives. The mission aims to provide one of the most detailed looks ever at the city’s air pollution.
