Planaltina extends along the Goiás-Federal District border northeast of Brasília as an important satellite city, where native cerrado trees, eucalyptus, and soybean farmland are the main pollen sources. The cerrado dry season from May to September concentrates pollen dispersal, while the wet season brings frequent rainfall interruptions and the flat cerrado plateau allows pollen to disperse widely throughout this Brasília northeastern satellite municipality.

How often is the Planaltina pollen forecast updated?
The Planaltina pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Planaltina come from nearby or far away?
Studies show that most pollen exposure (often 70–90%) comes from nearby sources, such as local trees and vegetation. A good pollen forecast therefore depends on accurately representing local vegetation. Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Planaltina based on measurements or forecasts?
Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.
Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Planaltina, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.
This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
