King’s have today updated their PM10 particles Nowcast map to show predicted pollution for the day, based on the latest measurements. The service will now be more useful to people trying to understand and avoid high pollution levels. The Nowcast has changed in line with the new Defra daily air quality index, which was introduced on the 1st of January 2012. Whilst the original PM10 Nowcast displayed measurements over the last 24 hours, the newly updated one uses real time measurements to look forward and predict PM10 air pollution for the day.
