NASA releases new high-quality, near real-time air quality data

NASA has made new data available that can provide air pollution observations at unprecedented resolutions—down to the scale of individual neighborhoods. The near real-time data comes from the agency’s TEMPO (Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution) instrument, which launched last year to improve life on Earth by revolutionizing the way scientists observe air quality from space. This new data is available from the Atmospheric Science Data Center at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. NASA has made new data available that can provide air pollution observations at unprecedented resolutions—down to the scale of individual neighborhoods.
