U.S. EPA's Air Pollution Control Orientation Course

http://www.epa.gov/air/oaqps/eog/course422/apc4e.html

This link leads to EPA's web-based course on Air Pollution Control. The course is designed to be used independently, without an instructor, and is intended primarily for new employees in governmental air pollution control agencies, but may also be useful to people who are seeking basic knowledge about air pollution. Through the Clean Air Initiative, a self-instructional course in Spanish is available; this Spanish version is an adaptation of the printed self-instructional manual "SI:422 Air Pollution the Control Orientation Course" of the Air Pollution Training Institute (APTI) of the United U.S. EPA.

WHO Air Management Information System (AMIS)

http://www.emro.who.int/ceha/cehanet1_database_topics.asp Exit EPA

The Air Management Information System (AMIS) is a set of user-friendly MSAccess-based databases aimed at transferring information on air quality management (air quality management instruments used in cities, indoor and ambient air pollutant concentrations, noise levels, health effects, control actions, air quality standards, emission standards, emission inventories, dispersion modeling tools) between countries and cities, and thus acting as a global air quality information exchange system.  A core database contains summary statistics of air pollution data like annual means, 95-percentiles, and the number of days on which WHO guidelines are exceeded.  AMIS 3.0, 2001 is now available on CD-ROM with data (mostly from 1986 to 1999) from about 150 cities in 45 countries.  The data are made available by the WHO Department for the Protection of Environmental Health to AMIS participants and also distributed to interested non-profit organizations free of charge.
