Description

A 2023 study of Dublin uses two large Google data sets to link street greenery with air quality along the full road network. Street View images gave a green view score for each spot. Air View cars gave over five million measures of fine dust and four gases.

More green in the street view went with lower levels of each pollutant, and all links were strong in test terms. For one step up in the green score range, nitrogen dioxide fell by about seven percent at the same spot. The authors say such data can help cities plan cleaner streets.
