The Abu Dhabi Public Health Centre (ADPHC) has launched an indoor air quality system that will deploy advanced monitoring devices at selected locations across the emirate to continuously track indoor air pollutants for healthier environments.

The indoor air quality observatory, named "HawAQM", uses high-precision sensors to deliver real-time data that enhances awareness and oversight of indoor air quality.

It also covers a broad range of indoor locations, including schools and households, enabling it to support all facilities. 

The new system will also allow specialists to take immediate actions to ensure safe and healthy indoor environments.
