Air Quality Tracker: Pollution

With growing concern about air pollution, we bring you an app that will help you monitor the air quality around you, your city and any other place across the globe.
The app shows air quality index for any city so you can search to check AQI for that area. Details show the index and 6 major pollutants being tracked along with health advisory for the same.

You can get alerts from the app.

Features:

- Air quality index.
- Air quality index by city
- Air quality index data for - 10,000 stations in 800 major cities from 70 countries
-Weather
- Monitoring of 6 key Pollutants: PM2.5, PM10, Ozone, Nitrogen Dioxide, Sulphur Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide
- Complete Health Index chart available for reference

- Automatically fetch and display local Air Quality and Air Pollution data as a pollution meter from the nearest reporting station using your phone's GPS location.
- Data used for air quality index includes ground-level ozone, particulate matter, pm10, carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide, nitric oxide, and nitrogen dioxide.
- Easy to understand pollution meter.
- Search Air Pollution and Air Quality data for any location by City name.
- Contains Air Pollution / Air Quality data for over 60 countries including in over 60 countries including Canada, United States Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, China, Korea, Japan, Mexico, Turkey and India.
- Display up to date Air Quality Index (AQI) data for the selected location.
- Displays basic weather metrics for a selected location such as: temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, and wind vector (wind speed, wind direction).
- Maintains a list of recently searched locations for easy look up and Air Quality reference.

The air quality index is based on the five 'criteria' pollutants regulated under the Clean Air Act:

- ground-level ozone
- particulate matter
- carbon monoxide
- sulphur dioxide
- nitrogen dioxide
- CO (Carbon Oxide)
- NO2 (Nitrogen dioxide)
- O3 (Ozon)
- PM10 (particulate matter 10 micrometers or less in diameter)
- PM25 (particulate matter 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter)
- SO2 (Sulfer dioxide)
- T
- W
- WG
- H (Hydrogen)
- DEW (Hydrocarbon Dew)

Often the weather can be the cause of air pollution. In cold winter nights without wind, there is a higher possibility the air quality to worsen due to temperature inversion.
Particulate matter is removed primarily by rainfall. If the pollution level of the air is moderate to high and it starts raining, about 60 minutes are needed to see a difference. This is why weather can cause and solve the air pollution problem.
