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
Port Hawkesbury’s air‑quality feed draws on a single monitoring site that supplied six individual pollutant readings on the most recent update recorded at 2026‑02‑10 22:00 UTC. The dataset therefore represents one station and six rows of data, each covering a different measured constituent.
The available pollutants are nitrogen monoxide (NO) at 0.0003 ppm, nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) at 0.0007 ppm, total nitrogen oxides (NOX) at 0.0011 ppm, ozone (O₃) at 0.039 ppm, fine particulate matter (PM2.5) at 6.2 µg/m³, and sulfur dioxide (SO₂) at 0.0 ppm. For every pollutant the minimum, median, and maximum values are identical, indicating that only a single measurement was captured for each during this reporting window. Because all six rows share the same “last updated” timestamp, the data are uniformly fresh, with no older or unknown‑age entries.
With just one monitoring location, the coverage is limited to conditions at that specific site and does not capture spatial variation across the broader city area. The lack of multiple observations also means there is no spread or trend information; each pollutant’s reported figure is a single point rather than a range over time. While the timestamps are recent, the dataset’s narrow scope should be kept in mind when interpreting how representative these numbers are for Port Hawkesbury as a whole.
