How reliable is this data?
The nearest station used for the estimate (“MANTOVA - VIA ARIOSTO”) is about 16.5 km away: the further from the stations, the more uncertain the estimate.
Measurements and the European model diverge today: take the value with a little extra caution.
Every value shown is an estimate for the municipal area, not an exact point measurement.
Station measurements are collected by the regional environmental agencies and published by the EEA; the model, pollen and UV come from Copernicus CAMS.
Right now the index in Marcaria is set by Nitrogen dioxide: it is the pollutant weighing most on the air you breathe.
A gas linked above all to vehicle exhaust: in cities it is the thermometer of traffic.
