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 air‑quality record for Kourou draws on a single monitoring site – the Gaston Monnerville Brady station – which supplies data for three pollutants. Ozone (O3) is reported at 59.4 µg/m³, particulate matter with a diameter below 10 µm (PM10) at 36.5 µg/m³, and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) at 16.5 µg/m³. All three measurements share the same most recent update timestamp of 2026‑02‑10 15:00 UTC, meaning the latest values are less than three days old.
Because only one station contributes, each pollutant has a single recorded value; consequently the minimum, median and maximum for O3, PM10 and PM2.5 are identical (59.4 µg/m³, 36.5 µg/m³ and 16.5 µg/m³ respectively). The data set shows no spread or variability across time or space within the city, so any short‑term fluctuations cannot be captured here.
The three rows in the database are all classified as “updated within 3 days,” with none older than that and no unknown timestamps. This indicates that, at present, the dataset is fresh but limited to one location, so it reflects conditions only at the Gaston Monnerville Brady site rather than a broader city‑wide picture. Users should keep in mind that air quality can differ across neighborhoods and over time, and the current snapshot provides a single‑point view of Kourou’s atmosphere on 2026‑02‑10.
