Kashiwara in Osaka reflects the Osaka metropolitan area's southeastern Yamato River position adjacent to the Kongo Mountains, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the manufacturing and residential character contributing local sources. Osaka Bay breezes provide limited maritime ventilation, while the broader Kinki metropolitan regional background maintains moderate Osaka southeastern suburban corridor readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Kashiwara?

Are air quality levels in Kashiwara 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.
