Apizaco's air quality reflects the flat Tlaxcala-Puebla plateau at 2,460 metres adjacent to the DINA truck manufacturing corridor, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the industrial, transport, and agricultural character contributing local sources. The elevated plateau position aids dispersal on most days, while winter inversions create seasonal challenges and the industrial and transport manufacturing character maintains moderate to elevated Mexican highland plateau industrial corridor readings throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Apizaco?
The biggest local contributors to pollution in Apizaco are vehicle traffic, textile and manufacturing operations, along with farming and agricultural processing, particularly once windblown dust events occur. These wind events can carry dust in from the surrounding arid landscape. This is most noticeable during spring and autumn wind events.
Are air quality levels in Apizaco 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.
