Online Air Pollution Data

CARB Air Monitoring Hourly and Weekly Data
Lists the air monitoring sites within the different California Air Quality Districts. You can choose daily or weekly criteria pollutant statistics from data extending from the present back to 1963 in some cases. Locations of the monitoring sites can be found here.

CARB Air Quality Data Summaries
This site contains links to yearly summaries for ozone, PM10, and toxics organized graphically by basin, district, county, and monitoring site within California. Tables contain information on number of exceedances and highest concentrations. This is an easy to use and very well laid-out site.

CARB Daily Report
Summarizes air pollution levels from the previous day for select stations in California. In the winter, CO, NOx, and PM10 are reported, while in the summer ozone is reported.

CAPITA Air Pollution Experimental Datasets
Contains downloadable datasets from several field programs, including AIRS, IMPROVE, SCENE, CASTNet, and SAMSON. The North American Integrated Fine Particle Data Set and a paper describing the data sources are available as well.

CEDVAL Wind-tunnel Data
Images and raw data of experimental data measured around buildings in a wind tunnel can be downloaded. Includes velocity and concentration fields. Easily negotiated site.

El Paso/Ciudad Juarez Air Quality Data
This ftp site contains 1 week's worth of 5 minute data and 3 years worth of hourly data for monitoring sites around El Paso, Texas. The data is an ascii format.

EPRI Air Pollution Experiments
Provides ftp downloadable datasets from the EMEFS, ERAQS, PMV, SCENES, SURE, and UAPSP air quality programs.

ETCAQ AIRBASE
A searchable database that provides hourly data of criteria pollutants in column format for European Union cities. Some monitoring sites have data that extend back many years.

National Acid Deposition Program Database
Deposition and precipitation data from the NADP stations are available through an easy to use clickable map of the United States. Daily, weekly, monthly, and seasonal data are available in several formats. Isopleth maps are also available.

NADP AIRMon Site
Similar to the NADP dataset, the Atmospheric Integrated Research Monitoring Network contains deposition and precipitation data for a few stations, but at greater temporal resolution.

NPS-ARD/CIRA IMPROVE Air Quality Maps
A very nice site with multi-year and seasonal avergage air pollution concentration and visibility parameter contours overlaid onto a US map. Quantities being displayed are changed with a simple mouse-over.

OTAG Data
Contains links to AIRS data, ozone animations, and other datasets.

SCAQMD Smog Data
Contains forecasts and current hourly readings for each station in the Southern California Air Quality Management District. Uses a clickable map interface. Includes historical air quality and meteorology datasets as well.

SIMA Mexico City Real-Time Air Quality Data
Straight forward site showing daily hourly readings for the five sectors of Mexico City. Air quality data in table and graphical format.

United Kingdom Air Quality Data
Hourly readings, air quality maps, and other air pollution statistics are available from this site.

USEPA AIRNOW Links to State Data
A clickable US map linking to web sites of State and local agencies that provide real-time air quality data. Currently 22 states are available.

USEPA AIRNOW Ozone Mapping Project
Ozone movies for 1999 for many eastern states and a few western states. Movies are archived by state, region, and day of year.

USEPA Hourly AIRS Data
At the CAPITA site, downloadable datasets of criteria pollutants for US air monitoring stations for the period 1986-1995. Each year contains data from April to September. Currently, at the USEPA Airs Site, only summary, site, and monitor information are available. The raw data link is still not working.

Victoria, Australia Air Quality Data
Tables of current and past hourly readings of criteria pollutants are available at this slick site provided by the Environmental Protection Authority. Data extends back to 1990.
