Outline Overview of AIRNow AIRNow Community Data Flow AIRNow Tools Use of AIRNow during wildfires Contact and Resources

Overview of AIRNow AIRNow provides a common framework for acquiring and distributing air quality information Foster community effort among Federal, State, Local and Tribal air quality agencies (120+) Collect, quality assure, and transfer real-time and forecasted air quality information to the public Communicate air quality via the Air Quality Index (AQI) Issue weather/air quality news stories Partner with national media Provide air quality education and outreach

Data Flow

Data Flow – Other Data Sources

AIRNow Tools (1 of 5) AIRNow.gov Current ozone and PM 2.5 maps Air quality news stories Archived air quality maps Air quality forecast display NOAA ozone forecast model

AIRNow Tools (2 of 5) AIRNowGateway.org An alternate way to access AIRNow data Products include -text files with hourly and daily air quality values, forecasts, and location information -web service queries (XML) that can be viewed by various applications

AIRNow Tools (3 of 5) Enviroflash.info EPA’s free system that automatically sends an AQI forecast notice to subscribers at health levels they select. (more information on airnow.gov)

AIRNow Tools (4 of 5) AIRShare.info A resource for Air Quality Communicators to share outreach materials

AIRNow Tools (5 of 5) AIRNowTech.org Decision Support System: management and analysis tool for the AIRNow program GIS functions - HYSPLIT trajectory tool, satellite and smoke products Data queries, personalized tools, preferences, and services Ability to view meteorological and air quality data HMS smoke plumes with forward HYSPLIT trajectories
