Data

Where do these data come from?

The daily value is the Data Hub’s: the mean of the city’s sensors that passed the nightly quality check, each with at least 12 valid hours, and only with sensors at four places 500 m apart; days are UTC.

“Now” uses the same sensors and rule: the mean of their latest readings, each at most 60 minutes old, shown only with sensors at four places 500 m apart reporting.
