The main purpose of this AirData website is to create reports and maps
of air pollution data. You choose which type of report or map to produce,
and you determine its content by selecting options. The steps below
outline how you go about generating a report or map.
- Select geographic area
The geographic selection web page offers several choices, from the
entire United States to a single ZIP code. Go
to geographic selection.
- Select report or map type
Some reports and maps are not compatible with some geographic area
types. AirData tells you which report and map types are available
for the geographic area you selected.
- Specify options
Each report and map has options that you may use to customize its
content. For example, you may need to select an air pollutant or a
year.
- View the report or map
After you select options and submit your request, AirData software
extracts the appropriate data, formats the data for a report or map,
and displays the results in your browser. At this point, you may optionally
download the data to your computer in any of several formats.
