Takizawa's air quality reflects the Iwate Prefecture Kitakami River valley western plateau position at 260 metres adjacent to Morioka, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the manufacturing, residential, and services corridor contributing local sources. The Kitakami highlands provide topographic variation, while Pacific coastal breezes provide background ventilation and Takizawa generally maintains moderate to good conditions for a major Japanese Iwate metropolitan suburban city throughout most of the year.

Are air quality levels in Takizawa 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.
