Roeselare's air quality reflects the flat West Flanders agricultural corridor, with vehicle traffic on the A17 motorway and surrounding food processing, textile, and logistics industry contributing local sources. The flat Flemish plain provides reasonable dispersal on most days, while the broader Rhine-Meuse-Scheldt industrial background and cross-border pollution from the French Nord-Pas-de-Calais textile area elevate regional background readings above typical Belgian provincial levels throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Roeselare?
Roeselare residents notice reduced air quality mainly when birch and linden pollen peaks, and during spells of vehicle traffic on the A17 motorway and local food processing, textile, and logistics industry; cooler, breezier weather later in the year tends to bring things back down.
Are air quality levels in Roeselare 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.
Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?
Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.
During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
