Swiftwater, PA

The Center for Collaborative Heat Monitoring is proud to partner with Sanofi and Pocono Mountains United Way in 2026-2027 on a participatory campaign to learn more about air quality and health in eastern Pennsylvania.

The project combines two types of data collection which will allow us to learn as much as we can about air quality in the Poconos. First, we will collect furnace filters from 5-6 homes in the area and install research-grade sensors inside and outside those homes. This will give us long-term, highly detailed data that reflects the everyday experience of air quality in the Poconos. We will also provide a set of portable, low-cost sensors that can be used by interested community members to answer their own questions and collect data.
