Indoor air quality (IAQ) and ventilation critically influence health, comfort, and energy performance of buildings. Over the past decades, numerous studies and initiatives have produced and studied indoor pollutant concentrations, respective emission rates, and applicable regulations. Yet this knowledge remains fragmented: datasets are dispersed, often not accessible, variably documented, and rarely harmonized, hindering synthesis, comparability, and practical uptake.

This webinar will present existing IAQ related databases and the ongoing efforts to overcome these barriers

This webinar is organised by the AIVC. The event is facilitated by INIVE.
