Portland's St. Johns air quality reflects the North Portland neighbourhood adjacent to the St. Johns Bridge and the Columbia River industrial corridor, with vehicle traffic on N Lombard Street and the surrounding industrial legacy and residential character contributing local sources. The Columbia River provides limited ventilation, while the surrounding industrial corridor's background emissions and the neighbourhood's working-class character maintain moderate to above-average North Portland readings throughout most of the year.

Are air quality levels in St. Johns 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.
