Air Quality and Pollen Count

Published by NashvilleOpenData

<p><span style='font-size:medium;'>The Air Quality Index (AQI) is an index for reporting daily air quality. It tells you how clean or polluted your air is, and what associated health effects might be a concern for you. The AQI focuses on health effects you may experience within a few hours or days after breathing polluted air. The AQI is reported according to the Environmental Protection Agency's scale.</span></p><div><div><span style='font-size:medium;'>The Health Department obtains the pollen forecast from Pollen.com. Pollen forecasts are based on a variety of environmental and seasonal factors including past and current pollen counts over the past 24 - 72 hours and the weather conditions. The pollen forecasts estimate how much pollen an allergy sufferer is likely to be exposed to in the future. The pollen forecast is currently reported on a scale of 0 to 12.</span><br />&nbsp;</div><div><span style='font-size:medium;'>This dataset is updated daily.</span></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><div><span style='font-size:medium;'>Source Link:&nbsp;</span><a target='_blank' href='https://www.nashville.gov/departments/health/environmental-health/air-pollution-control' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'><span style='font-size:medium;'>https://www.nashville.gov/departments/health/environmental-health/air-pollution-control</span></a></div><div><span style='font-size:medium;'>Metadata Document:&nbsp;</span><a target='_blank' href='https://nashville.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/4fb750c037cf4d8daa38bb8c47a0d2aa/data' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'><span style='font-size:medium;'>Air Quality and Pollen Count Metadata.pdf</span></a></div><div><span style='font-size:medium;'>Contact Data Owner:&nbsp;</span><a href='mailto: opendata@nashville.gov&amp;subject=Air Quality and Pollen Count' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'><span style='font-size:medium;'>opendata@nashville.gov</span></a></div><div><br />&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div></div></div>
