Robertson Golf Club lies roughly 140 km east of Cape Town. Robertson Golf Club's air quality reflects its semi-arid Karoo setting, with vehicle traffic and sheep farming and small-town activity as the main local sources of particulate matter. The dry climate and open, sparsely vegetated landscape generally allow good dispersal, though very still days can occasionally let dust levels build up. Conditions like these are common across much of the Karoo.

When is air pollution at its worst in Robertson Golf Club?
Golfers at Robertson Golf Club rarely encounter poor air quality, aside from occasional dusty spells during the driest, windiest stretches of late winter and spring. For the rest of the year, the Karoo's remote, open setting keeps conditions generally excellent for play, a seasonal pattern typical of the wider Karoo interior.
Are air quality levels in Robertson Golf Club 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.
