The air quality information displayed here is polled hourly from Alberta Environment and Parks monitoring stations. It is intended for public awareness of the current, ambient air quality. This data has not undergone quality assurance procedures and may contain errors caused by instrument malfunctions, connection problems, instrument calibration times or power failures. Because of this potential for errors, these near real-time data are considered “raw” and should not be used in published documents.
Data that has undergone quality assurance processes can be accessed from Alberta Environment and Parks airdata (airdata.alberta.ca) – the data warehouse of all official, historical, air quality data for Alberta. Note that the quality assurance process can take up to one month, during which time it will not yet be available from Alberta Environment and Parks airdata.
