Air Pollution Map Europe. After clicking the ALL button 6 options will appear which change the map view and the number of visible stations. NO2 pollution has been at the centre of the debate on the air pollution crisis in EuropeBut data from a new European Space Agency satellite reveals the scale and spread of NO2 on a global scale.
The GAIA air quality monitoring stations are using high-tech laser particle sensors to measure in real-time PM25 pollution which is one of the most harmful air pollutants. An interactive map makes it possible to check air quality in real-time across Europe where air pollution has been linked to hundreds of thousands of premature deaths every year. Another dark spot on Europes pollution map is southern Poland dense with coal-fired power plants and wood-burning.
The European Air Quality Index allows users to understand more about air quality where they live work or travel.
For example air pollution is reasonably well measured in the US and Europe. For PM25 Krakow was the second most congested city on the continent in 2016 with an average annual concentration of 38 mcgm3 just ahead of Katowice. The EEA provides access to validated air quality data and unvalidated up-to-date air quality data on ambient air concentrations measured at monitoring stations across Europe. Very easy to set up they only require a WIFI access point and a USB power supply.
