European air quality data for 2017 (interpolated data and station points), Jan. 2020

The data set provides the EEA 1 km and 2 km grids combining the monitoring air quality data in a ‘regression-interpolation-merging mapping’ methodology and the observational values of the air quality monitoring stations used in the interpolation. It covers Europe for the year 2017 and for the pollutants PM10, PM2.5, O3, NO2 and NOx. It includes SOMO10, as a novelty from the 2016 data set.



This data set is used to estimate population and vegetation exposure to air pollution, as an input to the indicator CSI005 (Exposure of Europe's ecosystems to acidification, eutrophication and ozone) and for the health impact assessments published in the Air Quality in Europe reports. The methodology and the maps themselves can be found in the 2019 Eionet report "European air quality maps for 2017" available at https://www.eionet.europa.eu/etcs/etc-atni/products/etc-atni-reports/etc-atni-report-9-2019-european-air-quality-maps-for-2017-pm10-pm2-5-ozone-no2-and-nox-spatial-estimates-and-their-uncertainties.

The data set for download also includes the maps in TIFF and PNG format included in the reports.

      Statement

      The maps are derived primarily from the e-reporting AQ database, consisting of monitoring stations data reported to EEA, and some additional EMEP station monitoring data, supplemented with altitude, meteorological ECMWF data and EMEP concentration modelling data. These maps are assessment tools for use at the European scale. They may show results which differ from assessments made at national scale and should not be used to check formal compliance with regulated standards. More information will be provided once the report is published.

      The file "Note_On_2017_Datasets.txt" provided with the data set includes a description of the layers and the values provided in each layer.
