Air pollution is reaching dangerous levels in Indian cities, especially in the Delhi-NCR region. You can use these apps and resources to track air quality in cities.
There seems to be no respite from air pollution problems in India, especially in metropolitan areas such as Delhi, where the AQI remains in the severe to low category. The National Capital Region (NCR), which includes cities such as Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Faridabad and Ghaziabad, is currently covered in smog with AQI for PM2.5 ranging from 300 and above. In such conditions, it is important to monitor pollution levels and prepare accordingly – yes, wearing FFP1 and N95 masks helps. Keeping all this in mind, we have listed some of the best apps that you can use to stay aware of the air pollution in your city.
Global Air Quality Index
The World Air Quality Index project is a non-profit project launched in 2007 and presents data for almost all cities in India. The project provides transparent air quality information in more than 130 countries, covering more than 30,000 stations in 2,000 major cities. The founding team is located in Beijing, China.
The website is available at https://aqicn.org/ and is also mobile friendly. Simply search for Delhi or any other Indian city and you will see real-time data on the air quality in that area. Remember that the website extracts data from official sources. For example, in the case of Delhi, data from the DPCC website is displayed, but on a much simpler to understand interface. It also gives some weather details, taken from the air quality monitoring station nearest you.
