Question

what is the maximum limit of annual average concentration of Respirable suspended particulate matter in the air of industrial areas ?

Answer 1

Get monthly/daily ambient Air Quality Data from different monitoring stations across India. Details of ambient air quality with respect to air quality parameters, like Sulfur dioxide, Nitrogen dioxide, Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter(RSPM) and Suspended Particulate Matter(SPM) etc. are given in the datasets. Few stations have been shifted/closed/during the period, as those were not meeting the NAMP guidelines for monitoring sites after differential development/change in the area. During1987-2013, SPM has been represented by PM 2.5 (PM2.5 was not being monitored during that period).


Air quality with respect to Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter (RSPM) in air quality stations under National Air Quality Monitoring Programme (NAMP) has been furnished in the data. It contains a detailed summary of Suspended Particulate Matter levels in the country. The air quality of different cities/towns has been compared with the respective National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The data provided is annual average concentration. In addition, to above the spread of the data has been given in terms of standard deviation.



City and location wise ambient air quality in residential, industrial, rural, others and ecologically sensitive areas have been provided in the data. Details of ambient air quality with respect to air quality parameters, like Sulfur dioxide, Nitrogen dioxide and Particulate Matter (having an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to 10 micrometer) Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter(RSPM), Suspended Particulate Matter(SPM) etc. are given in the datasets. Annual average in each city and its categorization for different pollutant is also represented in the datasets.
