Greater London Authority provides a dataset of air quality exposure for educational institutions, broken down by parliamentary constituency. The data is based on the 2013 London Atmospheric Emissions Inventory and includes all educational establishments except private nurseries. The legal limit for NO2 is an average annual concentration of 40 ug/m3.
Use Cases
- Assess compliance with NO2 legal limits for schools based on the stated 40 ug/m3 threshold.
- Map air pollution exposure disparities across London's parliamentary constituencies.
- Analyze potential health risks for student populations based on institutional air quality exposure data.
- Support policy planning for clean air zones around educational institutions.
Strengths
- Data is linked to a specific, authoritative source: the 2013 London Atmospheric Emissions Inventory.
- Includes a defined legal benchmark for assessment (NO2 limit of 40 ug/m3).
- Covers all educational establishments in London, excluding only private nurseries.
Limitations
- The underlying emissions inventory data is from 2013, which may not reflect current conditions.
- Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, limiting suitability assessment.
- Includes some closed schools, which may affect analyses focused on current exposure.
