Unverified raw hourly air pollutant monitoring and meteorological data collected by the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy. These data sets contain **air quality data from 2024 to the most recent hourly readings** and **meteorological data from 2023 to the most recent hourly readings** from air quality monitoring stations across B.C, up to the latest hour in Pacific Standard Time (PST). This does not include data originating from Metro Vancouver and Fraser Valley Regional Districts. For current conditions for Metro Vancouver and Fraser Valley Regional Districts please visit https://gis.metrovancouver.org/maps/air/ This data is not quality-assured.
