ATS 2020 Advance Program

NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION L21 APPLICATIONS OF NASA’S EARTH OBSERVATION DATA IN RESPIRATORY HEALTH 11:45 a.m. - 12:45 p.m. Target Audience Physicians; nurses; allied health professionals; public health practitioners; researchers who are interested in using Earth observation data for environmental and occupational health research applications. Objectives At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to: • provide an overview of the NASA Health and Air Quality Program relating to public health applications that are of interest to pulmonary clinicians and researchers; • inform clinicians and researchers about ongoing NASA projects related to performance lung and cardiac disease; • understand and provide updated information at local, state, national and international levels on air pollution. Earth-observing satellites collect environmental data of increased importance in public health, to help us better understand the health of the aquatic, atmospheric, and terrestrial ecosystems. By interpreting these geospatial and ecological relationships, researchers can subsequently advance coordinated response efforts to environmental health risks such as air pollution. This session will present an overview of the importance of satellite data incorporated in public health applications to examine respiratory health risks. We will highlight current NASA projects that incorporate satellite data to examine the health effects of urban ambient pollution and dust storms for community health assessments and public health surveillance.
