Weymouth's air quality reflects its position within Dorset, with local traffic and the town's built-up core as the main contributors. The A14 sees the heaviest traffic, and that shows up clearly in local roadside monitoring. Shifting coastal winds offer a degree of natural ventilation, keeping pollution broadly in line with comparable UK towns.

Are air quality levels in Weymouth 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.
