Weez911 Supersonic March 8, 2019 Share March 8, 2019 (edited) reading by NEA how come different? never even hit 100 https://www.haze.gov.sg/ https://va.ecitizen.gov.sg/CFP/CustomerPages/NEA_google/displayresult.aspx?MesId=1543232&Source=Google&url=va.ecitizen.gov.sg Question: Why is NEA's air quality data different from the real-time data provided by other websites, such as aqicn.org? Is NEA’s data inaccurate? Answer: The ambient air in Singapore is monitored through a comprehensive network of air monitoring stations located in different parts of Singapore. These monitoring stations measure concentration levels of particulate matter (PM10), fine particulate matter (PM2.5), sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3), and carbon monoxide (CO). These six pollutant parameters determine the PSI. Singapore uses the Pollutant Standards Index or PSI as the official national reporting system for air quality. PSI is computed based on a 24-hour average of the concentration levels of the abovementioned pollutants. PM2.5 is the dominant pollutant during transboundary haze episodes. The website aqicn.org in fact relies on the 24-hour average PM2.5 concentration data that is posted every hour by NEA. However, aqicn.org does not follow Singapore’s system of computing PSI. Instead, it computes an air quality index using the US Environmental Protection Agency‘s (USEPA) Air Quality Index (AQI) reporting system. There are no international guidelines on how air quality indices should be computed. Countries adopt different index systems based on their local needs and circumstances. While Singapore’s PSI is modelled after the USEPA AQI national reporting system, it is not identical to the USEPA AQI. The only country that adopts the USEPA AQI is the US. It is therefore incorrect to compare the PSI with other air quality indices which are calculated using different methodologies. ============================================================================== I'm the type who don't like to rely solely on govt's numbers.

Theoldjaffa Hypersonic March 8, 2019 Share March 8, 2019 Woke up this morning I can smell it quite badly at Pasir Ris areaExactly right.. so the NEA figures are rubbish. Even their time is not accurate Screenshot at 8.01am, reading as at 7am Screenshot at 8.11am, reading is backtrack to 6am 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
