Los Angeles' Getty Center air quality benefits from its elevated Brentwood hilltop position at 274 metres, with the elevated position above the Los Angeles basin's worst inversion layer providing significantly better conditions than the flat basin floor. Vehicle traffic on Getty Center Drive contributes modest local sources, while the extraordinary 110-acre campus's elevated hillside position and the Pacific coastal proximity generally maintain the Getty among LA's more reliably ventilated major cultural institutions throughout most of the year.

Are air quality levels in Getty Center 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.
