OpenAQ

Check air quality from government monitors near you or anywhere in the world.

Connects to OpenAQ's global network of air-quality monitoring stations. Find stations by location or country, read current pollutant levels (PM2.5, PM10, NO2, O3, CO and more), and view historical trends. Real measured data from reference monitors and low-cost sensors.

Try asking Muse: "What's the air quality like in my neighborhood right now?"

openaq_find_locationsFind air-quality monitoring stations (measured by physical sensors, not modeled) near a point, within a bounding box, or by country, optionally narrowed to one parameter, one station class (reference monitors or low-cost sensors, mobile or fixed), or one provider network.
