Air quality today
The air quality in Gurye‑eup is classified as Good today. The primary pollutant identified is PM10, with a measured concentration of 29.0 µg/m³ based on five valid observations reported through OpenAQ.
Overall conditions meet the criteria for the Good category, reflecting low levels of coarse particulate matter. 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 Gurye‑eup air‑quality dataset currently contains a single monitoring row that reports six common pollutants: carbon monoxide (CO) at 0.37 ppm, nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) at 0.0082 ppm, ozone (O₃) at 0.0241 ppm, particulate matter ≤10 µm (PM10) at 29.0 µg/m³, particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) at 9999.0 µg/m³, and sulfur dioxide (SO₂) at 0.0016 ppm. All six measurements were last updated on 2026‑02‑10 at 18:00 UTC, so the data are fresh within the past seven days.
Because only one station contributes to the record, the coverage is limited to a single location in Gurye‑eup, and there is no variation across sites for any pollutant. The reported values show virtually no spread: each metric has identical minimum, median, and maximum figures (for example, CO is consistently 0.37 ppm). This uniformity indicates that the dataset does not capture spatial or temporal variability within the city.
The PM2.5 reading stands out with an extreme value of 9999.0 µg/m³, which likely reflects a placeholder or sensor error rather than a realistic concentration. Apart from this anomaly, the other pollutants fall within typical ranges for rural Korean settings. Overall, while the data are recent, the single‑station source and lack of multiple observations mean that conditions can differ elsewhere in Gurye‑eup and at other times, so users should treat these figures as a snapshot rather than a comprehensive picture.
