Latest sensor values
PM categories follow US EPA AQI breakpoints, shown here as an estimate derived from the latest valid measurements (this project does not compute EPA NowCast/24-hour AQI yet).
What the data includes
The dataset for Beppu includes five measured pollutants – nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), total nitrogen oxides (NOX), fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). All of these come from a single monitoring site located at 別府市大字別府字野口原3088-1, so the station count is one row per pollutant. The most recent observation for each compound was recorded on 2026-02-10 22:00 UTC and is flagged as having been updated within three days, meaning the data are currently fresh.
Across the five pollutants the reported values show no variation; each has a single observed figure that also serves as its minimum, median and maximum. NO registers at 0.001 ppm, NO₂ at 0.003 ppm, NOX at 0.004 ppm, PM2.5 at 2.0 µg/m³ and SO₂ again at 0.001 ppm. Because the dataset contains only one measurement per pollutant, there is no spread to describe – the 10th and 90th percentiles are identical to the median for every compound.
The uniformity of timestamps indicates that all readings were taken at the same moment, providing a snapshot rather than a time‑series view. With just one monitoring location, spatial coverage within Beppu is limited; conditions elsewhere in the city may differ from those captured at this site. Nonetheless, the data are up‑to‑date as of early February 2026 and give a clear baseline for each listed pollutant at the recorded time.
