Air Quality in Basel (day)


This insight is based on the Open Data dataset “Luftqualität Station Basel-Binningen”. It uses the pollutants ozone (O₃), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), and particulate matter (PM₁₀) to calculate the Kurzzeit-Belastungs-Index (KBI), following the methodology described here.

The KBI ranges from 1 (good air quality) to 6 (poor air quality). This insight is only generated when the KBI exceeds level 3.

The analysis summarizes the air quality conditions of the previous day, measured at the NBCN monitoring station in Binningen, and compares them with historical trends. The underlying data originates from continuous monitoring since 2020, with hourly values aggregated into daily mean, minimum, and maximum levels.

Air Quality Parameters
