Geraldton benefits from some of the most consistently windy conditions of any Australian city, which generally keeps air quality very good by dispersing dust and any local pollutants quickly. The main occasional factors are agricultural dust from surrounding wheatbelt land during dry, windy harvest periods and, less commonly, smoke from regional bushfires. There is limited heavy industry in the town itself.

When is air pollution at its worst in Geraldton?

Air quality in Geraldton is rarely a major concern given the near-constant coastal winds, but the times to watch are during harvest season on surrounding wheatbelt farms, when dust can rise from paddocks and roads, and during any nearby bushfire smoke events in summer. Even then, Geraldton's characteristic breeze tends to clear conditions faster than in more sheltered inland towns.

Are air quality levels in Geraldton based on measurements or forecasts?

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.
