Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

A link to data from over 1500 sites across the UK that monitor air quality.

They are organised into networks that gather a particular kind of information, using a particular method.

There are two major types of network

  • Automatic

  • non-automatic networks

For each monitoring site you can select a range of statistics which are relevant to the particular monitoring method. Basic statistics are annual mean, maximum and minimum values, with daily means, monthly means and a range of percentile values available where these are meaningful.
