Live air data

The Queensland Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation (DETSI) in collaboration with industry partners operates an air quality monitoring network across the state.

Data from the monitoring network is presented online as ambient concentration, air quality categories ( https://www.qld.gov.au/environment/pollution/monitoring/air/air-monitoring/air-quality-categories ) and smoke and dust health action levels ( https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/air-quality/health/ ) which are updated hourly.

Historical data back to 2010 is available on the Queensland Government data portal ( https://data.qld.gov.au/dataset?q=%22air+quality+monitoring%22 ). Individual stations have been monitoring for different time periods so data may not be available for all possible times.
