Chart air quality data
What’s new
Queensland is now reporting hourly averages for PM2.5, PM10 and TSP (instead of a 24 hour running average).
Queensland Health has created 5 health action levels, presented in a colour indicator scale, to provide advice on what activities you can do, based on the hourly average concentrations of PM2.5 in the air.

About air quality index values
Our scientists create an air quality index by converting measured pollutant concentrations into index values which make it easier to interpret air quality data by reducing the complexity associated with pollutant concentrations.
The index value is the pollutant concentration expressed as a proportion of the National Environment Protection Measure for Ambient Air Quality (Air NEPM) standard or the Environmental Protection (Air) Policy 2008 (Air EPP) objective.
About Visibility
Aerosols and fine particles can reduce visibility. Smoke from fires or haze are common causes of poor visibility.
The guideline for Visibility is 235Mm⁻¹ (1hr avg).
Visibility is measured in inverse megametres.
