Single-year Tile Plot - for Exceptional Events Analysis
Plot daily AQI values for a specific location and time period. Each square or “tile” represents one day of the year and is color-coded based on the highest daily AQI value at the selected monitor - or among all monitors in the geographic area if "All Sites (Highest Daily AQI)" is selected. The legend tallies the number of days in each AQI category.
Note: This plot provides ozone, PM2.5, and PM10 data from AirNow for recent days that are not available from AQS. AQS data, as it becomes available, replaces any AirNow data. The AirNow data are not fully verified and validated through the quality assurance procedures monitoring organizations use to officially submit and certify data on the EPA AQS (Air Quality System) and, therefore, cannot be used to formulate or support regulation, guidance or any other Agency decision or position.
PM2.5 FEM (88502) data are included.
Data are pulled directly from AQS when the Plot Data button is clicked. The AirNow data refresh runs nightly, so concentrations for the previous day are typically available.
Mouseover a tile to see information for that day or download the underlying data by clicking the link under the chart.
