Vik kommune benefits from its inner Sognefjord branch position on the Vikøyri fjord, with consistent Sognefjord breezes providing reliable natural ventilation. Very modest vehicle traffic and agricultural and services operations contribute minimal sources, while the clean Sognefjord setting generally maintains excellent to good conditions throughout most of the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in Vik kommune?
The clearest air quality impact in Vik kommune comes on the odd still winter day between weather systems, when wood-burning smoke builds up over the lowlands during calm winter spells. The mix of open farmland and fjord air keeps background conditions favourable most of the time. Beyond these episodes, Vik kommune's air quality generally stays favourable.
Are air quality levels in Vik kommune 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.
