Information system analysis for monitoring of air quality in peri-urban Howrah

Air pollution is growing at an alarming rate across India, with urban regions in particular caught in the toxic web. Although there are stringent acts and regulations for air quality, proper information on air quality is not available round the clock. This work looks at the requirements for the design of a genuine air quality information system. Peri-urban regions of Howrah, with its cluster of foundries and other age-old industries located within densely populated residential zone, is considered as a case study. Air quality data available for this zone is analyzed and compared with that of other Indian cities. The prospects of designing an information system to monitor air quality of this region is explored in the study.
