Local Environmental Conditions
Around 48% of the area near the heart of La Veta is open grassland, with some built-up land and woodland. Along a stream or river nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Around here, open grassland adds grass and weed pollen. Street trees, private gardens and mown lawns add to local pollen in the more built-up surroundings.
Trees are the first to release pollen, with a peak around mid-spring. The grass season runs from mid-spring to late summer, with its high point around early summer. Weeds take the season into its final stretch, adding modest amounts of pollen from early summer into early fall. Winters average around freezing and summers around 25°C, with most rain falling in the warmer months.

Does pollen in La Veta 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 La Veta 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 La Veta, 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.
Airmine’s atmospheric monitoring platform was developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team, using satellite and Earth observation technologies to improve emissions monitoring.
Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
