When is air pollution at its worst in Edson?
Edson sees clear seasonal swings in air quality, driven in part by its forestry and rail industry amid the boreal foothills. Winters here typically bring the cleanest air of the year, but summer and early fall can bring sharp, sometimes prolonged drops in air quality when wildfire smoke drifts in from across the region. Local monitoring stations often see their highest readings of the year during major regional fire events.
Are air quality levels in Edson 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.
