In East End, the mix of heavy road traffic and urban density keeps particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide levels persistently elevated. Trees and green space some 150m from here provide a partial buffer, catching particulate matter before it spreads further. Actual daily readings vary with weather, time of day, and short-term local activity.

When is air pollution at its worst in East End?
Winter tends to bring the year's worst particulate spikes here, as cold, stagnant air traps heating and traffic emissions close to street level through the winter. The warmer months shift the main air quality risk here toward ground-level ozone, with summer's combination of heat, sun, and dense traffic driving some of the year's highest ozone readings.
Are air quality levels in East End 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.
