Note: The methodology used in the Global Open Data Index has changed over time; significantly so between 2015 and 2016. For this reason, the results are not directly comparable over time.

What data is expected?

Data about the daily mean concentration of air pollutants, especially those potentially harmful to human health. Data should be available for all air monitoring stations or air monitoring zones in a country. The Index focusses on key pollutants as defined by the World Health Organisation. See our methodology section for more information.

Particulate matter (PM)
Sulphur oxides (SOx)
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Carbon monoxide (CO)
Ozone
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
Available per air monitoring station/zone

How open is the data?
