Google Earth Now Showing Air Pollution Level

Google has joined hands with environment tech firm Aclima to measure the air pollution levels in California and the findings will then be mapped on Google Earth. Both the companies will work together to gather hyperlocal air quality data for the regions of the San Fransisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, and Central Valley.

The company says that so far it has registered over one billion air quality data points, but promises this is merely “the beginning.” Google will also allow scientists to access all the data and help them with their research on Air pollution. The company also said that it will work further and the data will not stay limited to California.
