When is air pollution at its worst in Fernwood?

Fernwood sees clear seasonal swings in air quality, driven in part by its leafy residential streets northeast of downtown Victoria. Persistent winter rain generally keeps pollution levels low, while dry summer stretches can bring some haze from traffic and, in smoky years, wildfires burning inland. Frequent Pacific storms during the cooler months usually clear the air completely within a day.

Are air quality levels in Fernwood 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.
