ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE DATA
The CIHR-funded Canadian Urban Environmental Health Research Consortium (CANUE) collates and generates standardized area-level environmental data on air and noise pollution, land use, green/natural spaces, climate change/extreme weather, and socioeconomic conditions and links this data to existing Canadian cohort studies and administrative health databases. CANUE exposure datasets have been merged with the national harmonized CanPath dataset (Baseline Health and Risk Factor Questionnaire (HRFQ), First Follow-up HRFQ, Questionnaire 2020 COVID-19, COVID-19 Antibody Baseline Questionnaire, COVID-19 Antibody First Follow-up Questionnaire, and COVID-19 Antibody Second Follow-up Questionnaire) using participants’ 6-digit residential postal codes and are now available to researchers.
