Problem & Motivation
Air pollution is an important risk factor for health in Europe and worldwide. A recent review of the global burden of disease showed that it is one of the top ten risk factors for health globally. Worldwide an estimated 7 million people died prematurely because of pollution; in the European Union (EU) 400,000 people suffer a premature death. The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) predicts that in 2050 outdoor air pollution will be the top cause of environmentally related deaths worldwide. In addition, air pollution has also been classified as the leading environmental cause of cancer.
Air quality in Bulgaria is a big concern: measurements show that citizens all over the country breathe in air that is considered harmful to health. For example, concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10 are much higher than what the EU and the World Health Organization (WHO) have set to protect health.
Bulgaria had the highest PM2.5 concentrations of all EU-28 member states in urban areas over a three-year average. For PM10, Bulgaria is also leading on the top polluted countries with 77 μg/m3on the daily mean concentration (EU limit value is 50 μg/m3).
According to the WHO, 60 percent of the urban population in Bulgaria is exposed to dangerous (unhealthy) levels of particulate matter (PM10).
Air Tube
Issue : In this data set the geographical location given is in a geohash format.
Solution : In order to retrieve the latitude and longitude of the location, the use of a python geohash2 library is needed to decode the geohash.
data_bg_2017
There is a geohash "m-2105171”, due to the ‘-‘ in the hash the geohash2 library is unable to decode the geohash hence I have used an online geohash converter to decode the ‘m-2105171’. However, after converting the particular geohash to it's latitude and longtitude and plotting into Tableau it is found out that the particular geohash 'm-210517' is an outlier as shown in the image below highlighted by the red box. Hence, there is a need to remove the particular point.
data_bg_2018
There are 4 missing geohashes found in data_bg_2018.
