Cork City Air Quality LIVE

The Air Quality Dashboard shows current pollution levels across Cork City.

If you are susceptible, this can help you identify times and areas of high pollution and, in the best case, manage your exposure. If you are part of an organization that wishes to improve air quality, the data can be your evidence base.

Air quality measurements based on hourly average concentrations of PM₂.₅ (Particulate Matter with a diameter less than 2.5 micrometres). PM₂.₅ is the air pollutant most harmful to public health, and is mostly associated with solid fuel burning in homes.

Please note that this air quality dashboard is not an Air Quality Index for Health (AQIH). Please refer to www.airquality.ie for the Air Quality Index for Health (AQIH) with linked health advice to ascertain the overall air quality.
