AirQ+: software tool for health risk assessment of air pollution

AirQ+ performs calculations that allow quantification of the health effects of exposure to air pollution, including estimates of the reduction in life expectancy. It can estimate the effects of short-term changes in air pollution and the effects of long-term exposures. AirQ+ can be used for cities, countries or regions to estimate how much of a particular health effect is attributable to selected air pollutants compared to the current scenario; and what would be the change in health effects if air pollution levels changed in the future? It might be useful for public health professionals working in or with cities.
The tool is designed for use in Europe although other areas may find it useful to review the methods used.
