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 West Vancouver contains measurements for three pollutants: nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) and fine particulate matter (PM2.5). All values come from a single monitoring location at Horseshoe Bay, so the city’s air‑quality picture is based on one station.
For NO the only recorded concentration is 0.0034 ppm, with the minimum, median and maximum all identical, indicating no observed variation in the available record. The same pattern holds for NO₂, which shows a single value of 0.0056 ppm. Both of these readings were last updated on 2025‑08‑14 16:00 UTC, classifying them as old data that are more than three days out of date.
PM2.5 is the only pollutant with a recent measurement; its concentration is 2.7 µg/m³, also reported as a single unvarying figure (min = median = max). This reading was refreshed on 2026‑02‑10 22:00 UTC, falling within the “updated within three days” freshness window.
Because the dataset consists of just one row per pollutant, there is no spread or range to describe beyond the single reported values. The timestamps show a clear split: nitrogen oxide measurements are over a year old, while the particulate matter data is current. Consequently, the available information captures only a snapshot from Horseshoe Bay and does not reflect spatial differences that may exist across other parts of West Vancouver or changes over time.
