Tbilisi's air quality reflects the Kura River valley's partial topographic enclosure between the Caucasus and Trialeti ranges at 490 metres, with vehicle traffic on surrounding expressways and the ageing vehicle fleet, construction, and industrial corridor generating elevated PM2.5. The valley's topographic enclosure creates concentration under winter inversions, while the Caucasian highland backdrop provides cleaner southerly airflows on most days and Tbilisi generally maintains moderate to elevated Caucasian capital city readings throughout most of the year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in Tbilisi right now?
On 9 August 2026, overall air quality in Tbilisi is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 36.2/100. Pollution peaks around 11:00 PM (NO2: 36.2/100).
Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Tbilisi?
On 10 August 2026, air quality conditions in Tbilisi will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 38.9/100. Pollution peaks around 12:00 AM (NO2: 38.9/100).
When is air pollution at its worst in Tbilisi?
The biggest local contributors to pollution in Tbilisi are vehicle traffic together with construction activity, particularly once the surrounding valley traps air close to the ground. Topographic enclosure in the valley lets pollution accumulate rather than clear out. Dust carried on these winds adds substantially to particulate levels.
Are air quality levels in Tbilisi 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.
