Air quality in Devonport is generally good, benefiting from the Roaring Forties westerlies that regularly sweep across Bass Strait and ventilate the north-west coast. Wood heater smoke in winter is the main seasonal concern, along with minor port-related emissions from the town's ferry and shipping activity, which is a notable feature of the town's economy. The town's role as a ferry and freight hub means some vehicle emissions add to conditions near the port precinct.

It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
