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 Bistrița contains a single monitoring location (BN‑1) that reports five common air‑quality variables: carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter ≤ 10 µm and sulfur dioxide. All measurements are expressed in micrograms per cubic metre.
The most recent reading from each pollutant was taken on 2026‑02‑10 at 19:00 UTC, so the data are fresh within the last week. Carbon monoxide shows a single recorded value of 654.15 µg/m³, while ozone is measured at 54.55263 µg/m³, PM10 at 26.96927 µg/m³ and SO2 at 9.87615 µg/m³. Nitrogen dioxide reports an anomalous value of –1.0 µg/m³, indicating a likely sensor or data‑entry issue rather than a true concentration.
Because only one station contributes to the record, there is no range or spread for any pollutant; each metric has identical minimum, median and maximum values. This uniformity means the dataset cannot capture spatial variation across the city or temporal changes beyond the single timestamp. The presence of a negative nitrogen‑dioxide figure further highlights that some readings may be unreliable, so users should treat that particular value with caution.
Overall, the data provide an up‑to‑date snapshot from one site for five pollutants, but the lack of multiple rows limits insight into how air quality differs across neighborhoods or over time. Users should keep in mind that conditions elsewhere in Bistrița may not be reflected by this single point of measurement.

Data notes
The data shown for Bistrița is based on three valid measurements and was updated within 3 days, with the latest reading recorded at 2026‑02‑10T19:00:00+00:00. This snapshot reflects conditions at a specific time and place; air quality can differ across neighborhoods and change throughout the day, so values may not represent the entire city at all times.
