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 Buan‑eup air‑quality record consists of a single monitoring station that reports six common pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂, written as NO2), ozone (O₃, written as O3), particulate matter 10 µm or smaller (PM10), particulate matter 2.5 µm or smaller (PM2.5, written as PM2.5), and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). All six measurements were last updated on 2026‑02‑10 at 17:00 UTC, so the data are fresh within the past seven days.
Each pollutant shows a single value because only one row is available. The CO reading stands at 0.36 ppm, NO2 at 0.0123 ppm, O3 at 0.0101 ppm, PM10 at 30.0 µg/m³, PM2.5 at 25.0 µg/m³, and SO₂ at 0.0013 ppm. Because there is no variation across time or location in this dataset, the minimum, median, maximum, 10th percentile and 90th percentile are all identical for every pollutant.
The limited coverage means that any snapshot reflects conditions at a single point in Buan‑eup rather than city‑wide averages. While the timestamps are recent, the lack of multiple rows or historical records prevents assessment of trends or spatial differences within the town. Users should keep in mind that air quality can change throughout the day and across neighborhoods, so this single‑station snapshot provides only a narrow view of current conditions.
