Goch sits within the flat Westphalian plain, where local traffic and nearby regional through-roads and surrounding arable farming and small-scale manufacturing contribute the main local air quality sources. The flat, open terrain generally allows reasonable pollutant dispersal, while the broader Rhine-Ruhr industrial background and Atlantic westerlies from the North Sea shape regional conditions throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Goch?
The most noticeable dips in Goch's air quality come when hornbeam, ash, and maple pollen peaks, or on still, humid days when emissions linger locally; regional road traffic is a modest local source. This part of Germany typically experiences only light ragweed levels overall. A shift to windier weather typically brings noticeable relief here.
Are air quality levels in Goch 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.
