I would like to contact other sensor owners in my area to discuss our readings and local air quality experiences.

Is it possible to obtain their email address from PurpleAir ?

We can’t share PII of PurpleAir users. That said, you’re welcome to use the Facebook users group to try to find others who are interested. Alternatively, you can seek out air quality organizations in your local community to find interested neighbors.

This is something that should be considered, actually. It would be trivial to add a form-based contact page to allow people to contact PurpleAir nodes by acting as a message relay. No non-consensual personal information would need to be exposed.
