What the data includes

The dataset for Perpignan includes measurements of five pollutants – nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter ≤ 10 µm (PM10) and particulate matter ≤ 2.5 µm (PM2.5). All values come from three monitoring stations, giving a total of thirteen individual rows in the current export. The most recent observations were recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 15:00 UTC for NO₂, O₃, PM10 and PM2.5, while the latest NO reading dates back to 2024‑03‑11 at 09:00 UTC, indicating that nitrogen monoxide data are older than the other parameters.

Across the pollutants the recorded concentrations span a fairly wide range. For NO the values vary from a low of 1.8 µg/m³ up to 43.4 µg/m³, with a median around 2.8 µg/m³; the 10th‑percentile is 2.0 and the 90th‑percentile reaches 35.3 µg/m³, showing that most recent NO measurements are clustered near the lower end but occasional spikes occur. NO₂ shows a broader central tendency, with a median of 31.1 µg/m³ and values ranging from 12.4 to 50.0 µg/m³; the inter‑percentile spread (16.1–46.2 µg/m³) reflects moderate variability throughout the city. PM10 concentrations are generally low, between 5.4 and 13.4 µg/m³, median 7.1 µg/m³, while PM2.5 stays under 11 µg/m³, with a minimum of 2.4, a median of 6.55 and a maximum of 10.7 µg/m³. Ozone exhibits the highest absolute values, from 18.7 up to 77.1 µg/m³, median 47.9 µg/m³, and a 10th‑percentile of 24.5 rising to a 90th‑percentile of 71.3 µg/m³.

Overall the dataset provides recent coverage for four of the five pollutants, but NO data are noticeably older. The three stations supply a modest spatial sample for Perpignan; while they capture typical ranges for each pollutant, conditions can still differ across neighborhoods and times not represented in these rows.
