Swansea's standalone roadside PM10 dust monitoring stations

There are currently ten "standalone" PM10 dust monitoring stations that are providing data for swansea.airqualitydata.com.

Please note that all data is displayed as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and may therefore appear to be 2 hours "old" during the summer months. Also, please note that should the last date/time update show for example " Last updated: GMT 26 Jan 2010 09:00" this means the data displayed is for the period 09:00 to 10:00. The next update will reflect the period 10:00 to 11:00 etc etc

These monitoring stations are located around some of the more busy junctions within Swansea. The monitoring is intended to provide a provisional / screening assessment as the monitors do not comply or show equivalence with reference gravimetric standard.
