A IR Q UALITY I NDEX (AQI)

C ALCULATION
The Air Quality Index is based on
measurement of particulate matter
(PM2.5 and PM10), Ozone (O3),
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur
Dioxide (SO2) and Carbon Monoxide
(CO) emissions. Most of the stations
on the map are monitoring both
PM2.5 and PM10 data, but there are
few exceptions where only PM10 is
available.

All measurements are based on

hourly readings: For instance, an AQI
reported at 8AM means that the
measurement was done from 7AM to
8AM.

M ONITORING S TATION ?
The GAIA air quality monitoring
stations are using high-tech laser
particle sensors to measure in real-
time PM2.5 pollution, which is one of
the most harmful air pollutants.

Very easy to set up, they only require

a WIFI access point and a USB power
supply. Once connected, air pollution
levels are reported instantaneously
and in real-time on our maps

A IR Q UALITY S CALE
The AQI scale used for indexing the
real-time pollution in the above map
is based on the latest US EPA
standard, using the Instant Cast
reporting formula.

AQI Air Pollution Level

Health Implications

Cautionary Statement (for PM2.5)

0 - 50 Good
Air quality is considered
satisfactory, and air pollution
poses little or no risk

None

51 -100 Moderate
Air quality is acceptable; however,
for some pollutants there may be a
moderate health concern for a very
small number of people who are
unusually sensitive to air pollution.

Active children and adults, and

people with respiratory disease,
such as asthma, should limit
prolonged outdoor exertion.

101-150
Unhealthy for Sensitive
Groups
Members of sensitive groups may
experience health e!ects. The
general public is not likely to be
a!ected.

Active children and adults, and

people with respiratory disease,
such as asthma, should limit
prolonged outdoor exertion.

151-200 Unhealthy
Everyone may begin to experience
health e!ects; members of
sensitive groups may experience
more serious health e!ects

Active children and adults, and

people with respiratory disease,
such as asthma, should avoid
prolonged outdoor exertion;
everyone else, especially children,
should limit prolonged outdoor
exertion

201-300 Very Unhealthy

Health warnings of emergency
conditions. The entire population
is more likely to be a!ected.

Active children and adults, and

people with respiratory disease,
such as asthma, should avoid all
outdoor exertion; everyone else,
especially children, should limit
outdoor exertion.

300+ Hazardous
Health alert: everyone may
experience more serious health
e!ects

Everyone should avoid all outdoor

exertion
