Nago's air quality benefits from its exceptional northern Okinawa Pacific Ocean and East China Sea coastal position, with consistent Pacific trade winds providing outstanding maritime ventilation along this pristine coastal corridor. Vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the US military Henoko base corridor and agricultural character contribute local sources, while the extraordinary island trade wind exposure and the outstanding natural coastal setting generally maintain Nago among Okinawa's cleaner northern coastal communities.

Are air quality levels in Nago 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.
