Air quality today
The air quality today in Emmen, Drenthe, Netherlands is classified as Unhealthy. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5. The most recent PM2.5 concentration is 83.65 µg/m³, based on five valid observations.
The figure is expressed in micrograms per cubic meter, the standard unit for particulate concentrations. Five separate samples contributed to the reported average, providing a basis for the current assessment. The data snapshot corresponds to the latest available sampling period. No PM10 measurement is currently reported for this location. Data is shown via OpenAQ. The five valid observations meet the minimum count required for reporting. 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 Emmen air‑quality record is built from a single monitoring location that contributed five rows of data, each row containing measurements for five pollutants. The dataset therefore includes PM1 at 44.25616633097331 µg/m³, PM2.5 at 83.65366617838542 µg/m³, relative humidity at 54.13766676584879 %, temperature at 6.467333348592123 °C, and UM003 particle concentration at 2 588.196842447917 particles/cm³. All values are reported from the “Thuis” sensor and were last updated on 2026-01-24 16:00 UTC, which places every reading comfortably within the “updated within 30 days” freshness window.
Because the data set consists of only one station, the spatial coverage for Emmen is very narrow; city‑wide conditions can differ from what this single point captures. Each pollutant shows an identical minimum, median and maximum value, indicating that only a single measurement is currently available for each parameter rather than a time series. Consequently there is no observable spread or trend in the numbers, and the typical (median) reading is exactly the same as the recorded value. The freshness of the timestamps confirms that the information is recent, but the lack of multiple stations or repeated observations means the dataset cannot reflect temporal fluctuations or variations across different neighbourhoods in Emmen.
