Air quality today
The air quality in Nijmegen today is classified as Good. The primary pollutant measured is PM2.5 (fine particles). According to the latest data, the PM2.5 concentration stands at 3.7314 µg/m³, while the larger particulate matter (PM10) registers a value of 10.83 µg/m³. These figures are based on eight valid measurements collected through OpenAQ.
Overall, conditions meet the criteria for a Good air‑quality rating. 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 dataset for Nijmegen includes six measured pollutants – carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and coarse particulate matter (PM10). Data come from two monitoring stations, each providing a row of observations; the total number of rows is ten. Freshness varies by pollutant: the most recent NO, NO₂, PM2.5, PM10 and O₃ values were all recorded on 2026-02-10 at 21:00 UTC, while the CO reading dates back to 2021-04-20 at 21:00 UTC, making it the only older entry in the set.
Across the pollutants, observed concentrations span a modest range. NO ranges from a low of 1.48 µg/m³ to a high of 2.92 µg/m³ with a median of 2.2 µg/m³; NO₂ varies between 15.19 and 16.48 µg/m³, median 15.835 µg/m³. PM2.5 shows the widest spread, from 1.3304 up to 3.7314 µg/m³, median 2.5309 µg/m³. Both PM10 and O₃ have a single reported value – 10.83 µg/m³ for PM10 and 34.58 µg/m³ for O₃ – reflecting that only one station contributed recent data for these pollutants. The CO figure is recorded as -995.0 µg/m³, indicating an invalid or placeholder measurement rather than a true concentration.
Overall, the dataset provides recent coverage for most gases and particulates, but the limited number of stations (two) and the outdated CO entry mean that city‑wide conditions may differ across neighborhoods and times not captured here. Users should keep in mind that the available numbers represent snapshots from specific locations rather than continuous city‑wide monitoring.

Data notes
The data shown for Nijmegen are based on eight valid measurements and were updated within 3 days, with the latest reading recorded at 2026‑02‑10T21:00:00+00:00. This snapshot reflects conditions at a specific time and location; air quality can differ across neighbourhoods and change throughout the day, so values may not represent the entire city at any given moment.
