Local Haze Software

Local Haze crowdsources outdoor air quality data from many different sources and delivers it to your iPhone. Local Haze reports air quality data from a variety of sensors including: PurpleAir, Sensor.Community, uRADMonitor, AirNow and the U.S. Department of State. In addition to viewing current air quality conditions, using Local Haze allows you to share sensor maps displaying air quality readings anywhere in the world. The World Health Organization and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have developed guidelines for safe air quality as impacted by chemical pollutants and particulate matter (PM). 

PM smaller than 10 micrometers poses problems because it can enter the bloodstream. Local Haze displays the level of smaller PM 2.5 particles, which pose the most significant risk to health. Notifications: New subscription feature in version 2.1 of Local Haze! Now you can subscribe to receive a notification when there is a significant change in the air quality readings for sensors by PurpleAir, Sensor.Community and uRADMonitor. To set a notification, tap on the bell icon on any PurpleAir sensor detail screen. Notifications will be sent to your phone when the air quality changes.
