In an inter-connected world, air quality is increasingly becoming another measurement made available to the public, but how reliable is the data? Common air pollutants such as NO2 and PM2.5 mix at different rates depending on their source and local weather conditions, particularly wind speed, leaving large local variations in pollution levels. Urban air quality …
