Creating CAP alerts with OpenAQ API #4

Open RocketD0g opened 8 years ago

RocketD0g commented 8 years ago

From an email conversation with colleague:

I suggested that you consider publishing CAP alerts for air quality conditions on a routine basis. As I mentioned, CAP alerts are generated routinely by EPA and posted as "EPA Air Quality Alerts".

You can find a brief flyer about CAP, focusing on online users, here.

Please do let me know if you would like to pursue this. I think you will find it is a straightforward task with huge benefits in terms of reaching people worldwide.

Note: This is a project that OpenAQ itself would likely not build, but would support others building on top of our API.
