Ambient air pollution attributable Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) per 100,000 population, age-standardized. This dataset quantifies the global health burden of outdoor air pollution, produced by the World Health Organization. Temporal coverage is unknown.
Use Cases
- Analyze the relationship between particulate matter exposure levels and attributable DALYs across different regions.
- Model trends in age-standardized disease burden from air pollution over time for policy evaluation.
- Compare the per-capita health impact (DALYs per 100,000) of ambient air pollution between countries or sub-regions.
- Correlate air pollution-attributable DALYs with other WHO health indicators like mortality or morbidity rates.
Strengths
- Data is produced by the World Health Organization, an authoritative global health body.
- Metrics are age-standardized, enabling cross-population and temporal comparisons.
Limitations
- Specific temporal coverage, row count, and column details are unknown.
- Data granularity (e.g., country-level, sub-national) is unspecified.
