Current Air Quality

Terradex

What is the air quality like right now? Find out here.

This KML provides real time monitoring of the current air quality in the United States, United Kingdom and Hong Kong. Updated every hour, air quality from hundreds of monitoring stations is shown giving a break down of the results. This type of KML can prove very useful for those with health problems (and those providing care), allowing them to plan their movement better and prepare for any potential issues that may arise from a peak in pollutants.
