Indoor Air Quality is Crucial for Safety and Productivity

The risks of viruses are now starkly apparent, and it’s only going to get worse with climate change according to researchers. This begs the question: How do we better protect building and office occupants from the risks of contagion? This post will explore how we can better prepare for future pandemics, reduce the risks of contagion, and navigate the uncertainty of these challenging times. 

The most important element in any interior air and environmental assay is accessing data regarding environmental conditions and operations within a defined space. Applying data analytics and machine learning algorithms can help create a comprehensive roadmap to improve operating efficiencies and understand conditions pertaining to emergent risks and exposure.

A process improvement framework is constructed by transforming data and analytics into metrics that are aligned to desired outcomes such as sustainability and energy efficiency. Green Econometrics has developed a framework to monitor, measure and curate data pertaining to process and sustainability performance.  This is extremely important.
