Mobile App Helps Burn Managers Assess Air Quality Impacts
The BlueSky Playground mobile app allows land and fire managers to estimate potential air quality impacts of planned burning decisions. This proof-of-concept app provides access to the <a href="https://tools.airfire.org/playground/v3.5/emissionsinputs.php" target="_blank"> BlueSky Playground web application</a href>, developed by Sonoma Technology and the USDA Forest Service AirFire team to support burn/no-burn decisions. The BlueSky Playground provides easy access to a sophisticated chain of fire emissions models without the need to download software or data, allowing users to specify basic fire information and examine forecasted smoke and air quality impacts.
