Beauvais' air quality reflects the flat Oise valley in the Picardie agricultural plain, with vehicle traffic on the A16 motorway and surrounding agri-food processing and logistics industry contributing local sources. Atlantic westerlies from the English Channel generally provide reliable ventilation across the flat northern French plain, while agricultural ammonia from surrounding Picardie intensive farming contributes secondary particulate formation and the flat terrain prevents significant topographic pollution trapping throughout the year.

Are air quality levels in Beauvais 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.
