Abstract

This paper presents progress in elaborating an indicator of population exposure to PM2.5 with the objective to produce internationally harmonised indicators for all OECD and G20 countries. The paper takes stock of the various methodological options, including those based on data from ground-based monitoring, remote sensing, and a hybrid approach. A calculation methodology is described and examples of the indicator are presented for all OECD and G20 countries for the 1990-2013 time period. Possible next steps are identified with the aim of updating the indicator on a regular basis. Ce document présente l’état d’avancement des travaux de développement d’un indicateur de l’exposition de la population aux PM2.5 dont l’objectif est de produire des indicateurs harmonisés au plan international pour les pays de l’OCDE et du G20. Il fait le bilan des différentes options méthodologiques, notamment de celles qui s’appuient sur des données de surveillance au sol, sur des données de télédétection, et sur une approche hybride. Une méthode de calcul est décrite et des exemples sont présentés pour tous les pays de l’OCDE et du G20 pour la période 1990-2013. Le document expose les étapes suivantes envisagées pour assurer une mise à jour régulière de l’indicateur.
