Open Thing is an innovative CIC, based in Poole,  with a 3D printed platform which is ideal for extending air quality network coverage of formal network like DEFRA to the local needs for monitoring traffic and industrial pollution in the post-COVID-19 period. Schools and hospitals will be hot spots for community concern about the major impact of pollution on health such as traffic on schools.
