This dashboard displays the air quality in the city of Milano, Italy.
All measurements come from the Open Data Portal of the city of Milan, with minor fixes to the measurement units of cyclic aromatic compounds, reported at concentrations 1000 times higher than the expected range, and of carbon monoxide, reported at concentrations 1000 smaller than the expected range.
Besides displaying raw measurements of air pollutants concentration, this dashboards displays percentages of target limits, which are documented here. I choose to use the most stringent limits reported.
Air pollutant in Milano are often above target limits.
| Pollutant Name | Pollutant Symbol | Days Measured | Days above Limits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carbon Monoxide | CO | 445 | 0 |
| Cyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons | C6H6 | 446 | 224 |
| Fine Particles | PM25 | 446 | 156 |
| Nitrogen Dioxide | NO2 | 446 | 398 |
| Ozone | O3 | 446 | 123 |
| Particulate Matter | PM10 | 446 | 102 |
| Sulphur Dioxide | SO2 | 440 | 0 |
