Das EU-Horizont-Projekt #EDIAQI EU (Evidence driven #indoor air quality improvement) hat 14 #Sensoren zur Messung der #Innenraumluftqualität in #Zagreb installiert. In den nächsten zwei Monaten werden diese Geräte automatisch und dabei helfen, hochauflösende Daten über die persönliche Belastung von Kindern durch #Luftverschmutzung und die Quellen von #Schadstoffen in Innenräumen zu erfassen > https://www.tropos.de/aktuelles/science-blog/beitrag/ediaqi-misst-innenraumluft-in-zagreb / #AQBIE #AirQuality #IoT #IndoorAirQuality #LowCostSensors #IMI

What do radon levels look like in Canada by building type?
The Cross-Canada Radon Survey has the data — with key results for health and safety.

The Cross-Canada Radon Survey analysed over 70,000 household measurements.
Almost 20% were above 200 Bq/m³.
Radon is invisible, dangerous, and the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer after smoking.

Why is it key to balance radon levels with factors like building type, region & community?

Radon risks differ — rural vs. urban, old vs. new homes — context matters.

Radon accuracy starts with the basics: blanks and spikes.

Miss this, and your data is flawed from the start.

Page 18 of the Cross-Canada Radon Survey shows how to get it right.

→ Blanks = catch contamination.

→ Spikes = confirm calibration.

→ Both = radon results you can trust.

Curious how Canada collected accurate radon data nationwide?

They ran a full survey — no shortcuts.

Page 17 explains the sampling and design in plain language.

Great model for radon work anywhere.
