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
Rinteln’s OpenAQ feed currently provides data for five key pollutants – nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), particulate matter 10 µm or less (PM10) and particulate matter 2.5 µm or less (PM2.5). The dataset consists of a single monitoring station that contributes five rows, one for each pollutant. All measurements are expressed in micrograms per cubic metre (µg/m³).
The most recent values are quite fresh: NO was recorded on 2024‑03‑11 11:00 UTC, while the other four pollutants were last updated on 2026‑02‑10 18:00 UTC, which falls within the three‑day freshness window used by OpenAQ. Each pollutant shows a single reported value that also serves as its minimum, median and maximum because only one observation is available for each. NO stands at 0.842231 µg/m³, NO₂ at 9.87432 µg/m³, O₃ at 45.4041 µg/m³, PM10 at 13.6302 µg/m³ and PM2.5 at 11.6388 µg/m³, all measured at the Weserbergland site.
Because the dataset contains only one observation per pollutant, there is no spread to describe – the ten‑percentile and ninety‑percentile values match the single measurement. This limited coverage means that while the timestamps are recent, the data cannot capture temporal variations or differences across the city. Users should keep in mind that air quality can change by location and over time, and the current snapshot reflects conditions at a single point rather than a broader picture of Rinteln’s atmosphere.

Data notes
The data shown for Rinteln are based on four valid measurements and were updated within 3 days, with the latest refresh recorded at 2026‑02‑10T18:00:00+00:00.
