What the data includes

The dataset for Magdeburg includes measurements of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NO and NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter (PM₁₀ and PM₂.5) and sulphur dioxide (SO₂). In total 16 data rows are available, coming from four monitoring stations across the city. Twelve of those rows have been updated within the last three days, while four rows are older than that period; there are no entries classified as “unknown” or from today.

The freshest values were recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 18:00 UTC for most pollutants. At that time CO was measured at 305.81 µg/m³ at the Schleinufer site, NO₂ peaked at 25.95715 µg/m³ and both PM₁₀ (21.1666 µg/m³) and PM₂.5 (17.66415 µg/m³) reached their maximums at the West location. Ozone also showed a single recent reading of 27.30595 µg/m³ from the same station. The oldest timestamp in the set belongs to SO₂, recorded on 2020‑12‑30 at 02:00 UTC with a value of 1.24 µg/m³ at Magdeburg/West. Nitrogen monoxide (NO) is the only pollutant whose latest entry dates back further, from 2024‑03‑11 at 11:00 UTC, showing a low reading of 0.780667 µg/m³.

Across the recent data the observed ranges are modest: NO₂ varies between about 20.3 and 25.96 µg/m³, PM₁₀ stays within 20.47–21.17 µg/m³ and PM₂.5 between 15.04–17.66 µg/m³, indicating limited spread among the latest measurements. However, the coverage is uneven – while CO, NO₂, O₃, PM₁₀ and PM₂.5 have up‑to‑date values, SO₂ and especially NO rely on older records, so city‑wide conditions for those gases may not reflect current levels.
