Sacramento's R Street Corridor air quality reflects the adaptive reuse industrial arts district, with vehicle traffic on R Street and the surrounding warehouse conversion and mixed commercial character contributing local sources. The Sacramento Valley's temperature inversion creates winter challenges, while the neighbourhood's increasingly walkable character generally maintains moderate Sacramento metropolitan readings and the R Street corridor tracks at typical inner Sacramento arts district levels throughout the year.

When is air pollution at its worst in R Street Corridor?

Dry summer conditions with virtually no rain mean pollution and smoke can linger for extended stretches once they arrive.

Are air quality levels in R Street Corridor 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.
