Jakarta's Kebayoran Baru and Blok M air quality reflects the planned southern Jakarta residential and commercial district, with vehicle traffic on the surrounding arterial roads and the concentrated Blok M transit hub generating elevated NOₓ. The relatively tree-lined Kebayoran Baru streets provide modest local buffering compared to the denser northern Jakarta corridors, while the southern location generally maintains marginally better conditions than the heavily industrialised northern Jakarta waterfront throughout most of the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is air quality bad in Kebayoran Baru & Blok M right now?

On 10 August 2026, overall air quality in Kebayoran Baru & Blok M is very poor. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 100/100. Pollution peaks around 1:00 PM (O3: 100/100).

When is air pollution at its worst in Kebayoran Baru & Blok M?

Reduced air quality in Kebayoran Baru & Blok M is most likely when introduced urban trees and boulevard vegetation pollen peaks, alongside periods of vehicle traffic on the nearby arterial roads and the concentrated Blok M transit hub; background levels usually settle back down once the season changes.

Are air quality levels in Kebayoran Baru & Blok M 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.
