Madrid Pollution 1.6.9

This application, developed independently, aggregates information from the public open data portal of the Madrid City Council: datos.madrid.es. It provides users with real-time updates on pollution levels in Madrid, alongside notifications regarding traffic restrictions related to pollution.

The issue of air quality in Madrid has been a recurring topic in the media. While environmental advocates express concern over the implications of pollution, political responses have often seemed inadequate. The visible presence of pollution throughout most of the year underscores the need for clear and precise information, enabling citizens to form informed opinions responsibly.

This app serves as a valuable resource for both residents and visitors to Madrid and its autonomous region. It offers access to real-time average hourly pollution levels from the Surveillance Network of the City of Madrid and the Surveillance Network of the Community of Madrid. Additionally, users can find details about various pollutants and their effects. For those interested in regulatory matters, the application also provides downloadable PDF documents pertaining to the European Regulatory Framework and national standards on pollution.
