Air quality by municipality

An estimate of air pollution (nitrogen dioxide and ozone) for every municipality each month since 2003, against the World Health Organization's guideline. From a European model, not from a monitor in your street.

What it coversCovers all 213 municipalities: the whole country.Green: places with records. Worked out from release 2026-11-12. Boundaries: Municipal Demarcation Board, 2026 boundaries.

In more detail

Modelled air each month for every 2026 municipality, district and province since 2003: nitrogen dioxide and ozone near the ground and the nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide in the column of air above, from the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service reanalysis (cells about 80 km), NO2 beside WHO's annual guideline. Modelled, not measured at the ground; particles (PM2.5, PM10) follow after a check against ground stations.

How far it reaches

6,302 records: every 2026 municipality, district and province, monthly from 2003 to 2025-12.

How often it changes
