Air quality today
The air quality today in Hongseong‑gun is classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, with a measured concentration of 29.0 µg/m³. In addition, the level of larger particulate matter (PM10) is recorded at 32.0 µg/m³ based on twelve valid observations.
Data are shown via OpenAQ and reflect the current monitoring results for the area. 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 Hongseong‑gun air quality feed includes six measured pollutants – carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter ≤ 10 µm (PM10), particulate matter ≤ 2.5 µm (PM2.5) and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). Data come from 12 individual rows collected at two monitoring stations, and every pollutant entry was last updated on 2026‑02‑10 18:00 UTC, which falls within the “updated within 7 days” freshness window.
Across the recent snapshot, CO values range from a low of 0.41 ppm to a high of 0.49 ppm, with a median near 0.45 ppm; NO₂ spans 0.0073‑0.0133 ppm (median ≈ 0.010 ppm); O₃ varies between 0.0152 and 0.0338 ppm (median ≈ 0.0245 ppm). Particulate concentrations are clustered tighter: PM10 runs from 32 to 38 µg/m³ (median = 35 µg/m³) and PM2.5 from 29 to 35 µg/m³ (median = 32 µg/m³). SO₂ is the lowest‑range gas, recorded between 0.0035 and 0.0042 ppm with a median of about 0.00385 ppm.
The dataset shows consistent coverage for all six pollutants, but the number of rows per station is modest, meaning spatial variation within Hongseong‑gun may not be fully captured by these two sites. Nevertheless, the recent timestamps indicate that the information is current, and the observed ranges are relatively narrow, suggesting limited short‑term fluctuation among the recorded values. Users should keep in mind that conditions can differ across neighborhoods and over time beyond what this snapshot reflects.
