Lately, discussions about air pollution have been more prevalent than ever. The topic has gained significant attention in Vietnam, especially if you're active on Facebook where the term 'AirVisual' keeps popping up. So, what do you know about AirVisual? In this article, Mytour will explore AirVisual with you.

1. Introduction
AirVisual is a mobile and web application developed to provide real-time air quality information. Established in 2015, AirVisual collaborates with various databases to extract details related to air quality and the hazards of pollution in daily life. While there are many apps monitoring air quality, none have gained widespread popularity like AirVisual. The app's database gathers information from atmospheric centers, space satellites, and ground-level measurement devices. All data is then processed in AirVisual's artificial intelligence analysis center before being sent to users.

In the realm of air quality monitoring apps, the accuracy of input data holds paramount importance. To obtain the most precise readings, a multitude of ground-level devices is essential for comprehensive tracking. Currently, Vietnamese users are obsessed with AirVisual, trusting its accuracy without fully grasping its operational principles.

For instance: In Hanoi, AirVisual collects ground-level data at 556 Nguyen Van Cu (Environmental Meteorological Observation Center). However, assessing air quality at one location cannot represent the entire city of Hanoi. Therefore, AirVisual's information is merely for reference, especially in provinces or cities lacking ground-level data centers, where AirVisual relies on AI estimates.
AirVisual isn't just a provider of free air data monitoring; it's also a company selling products aimed at safeguarding individuals from air pollution, such as air quality measurement devices and masks.

4. Health Protection Measures
If indoor air pollution is high, consider equipping rooms with air purifiers. Air purifier prices vary widely, and the crucial factor is not the appearance but the filtration core. HEPA filters, capable of blocking fine particles (2.5pm), are highly recommended.

When outdoors, wear a mask to protect against 2.5pm dust. Various mask manufacturers are available, with Xiaomi AirPop masks being easily accessible in Vietnam.
