Dataset description

The data includes real-time station-specific air quality observations maintained by the Finnish Meteorological Institute. Concentrations of air pollutants are measured using continuous automatic measuring instruments. The data consists of hourly averages, which are updated once an hour. The data contains a total of five pollutant compounds (SO2, NO2,O3, PM10, PM2.5), but the range of compounds to be measured varies by measurement station.
