Given its setting in the enclosed Rieti valley basin, Rieti's air quality is largely a function of vehicle traffic and residential wood-burning trapped by the basin, moderated by the broader Lazio weather patterns. Emissions tend to build during calm, high-pressure spells and clear more readily once winds or rain move through.

When is air pollution at its worst in Rieti?

People in Rieti tend to notice worse air when pine and oak pollen peaks, or because of vehicle traffic and residential wood-burning trapped by the basin; the remainder of the year in Lazio generally brings clearer, steadier conditions, especially on breezier days that help disperse local emissions across the surrounding countryside and built-up streets alike.

Are air quality levels in Rieti 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.
