Air quality today
The air quality in Bonghwa‑eup is classified as USG today. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5 (fine particles). Measurements show a PM2.5 concentration of 47.0 µg/m³ and a PM10 level of 52.0 µg/m³, based on six valid observations reported through OpenAQ.
These values reflect the current monitoring results for the city. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.
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 Bonghwa‑eup dataset contains six recent observations from a single monitoring site, 봉화군청, and covers all six common air‑quality pollutants that OpenAQ tracks for the city: carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter ≤10 µm (PM₁₀), particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM₂.₅) and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). Every record was last updated on 2026‑02‑10 at 17:00 UTC, which places all data comfortably within the “updated within 7 days” freshness bucket, indicating that the information reflects the most current conditions captured by the sensor network.
Because each pollutant appears in only one row, the reported values are identical for the minimum, median and maximum statistics. CO is measured at 0.91 ppm, NO₂ at 0.018 ppm, O₃ at 0.015 ppm, PM₁₀ at 52.0 µg/m³, PM₂.₅ at 47.0 µg/m³ and SO₂ at 0.0036 ppm. This uniformity means there is no observed spread or variability in the dataset; the single reading represents both the typical and extreme measurement for each pollutant on that date.
The data set therefore offers a complete but very limited snapshot: all six pollutants are present, yet they come from just one monitoring location and a single time point. While the freshness of the measurements is strong, the lack of multiple stations or repeated sampling means the figures cannot capture spatial differences across Bonghwa‑eup or temporal changes throughout the day. Users should keep in mind that air quality can differ by neighborhood and over time, even though the current dataset provides an up‑to‑date baseline for each listed pollutant.

Data notes
The data shown reflects six valid measurements and is updated within 3 days, with the latest values recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 17:00 UTC. This snapshot provides a current view of air quality in Bonghwa‑eup, but conditions can differ across neighborhoods and change throughout the day, so local variations may not be captured by these figures.
