AirBase is the public air quality database
system of the EEA. It contains a information submitted
by the participating countries throughout Europe.
The air quality database consists,
next to multi-annual time series of air quality measurement
data and their statistics for a representative selection
of stations and for a number of pollutants, also meta-information
on the involved monitoring networks, their stations,
and measurments.
The database covers geographically
all countries from the European Union, the EEA member
countries and some EEA candidate countries. The EU countries
are bound to report under the Council Decision 97/101/EC,
a reciprocal Exchange of Information (EoI) on ambient
air quality. Whereas, the EEA member countries committed
themselves to report to the EEA following this EU-legislation
or develope the appropriate measuring and reporting
infrastructure following EEA's EuroAirnet programme
critiria. All data reported within EuroAirnet context
are included in the database.
AirBase replaced and continued on the
fundaments of two preceding EU databases:
APIS (Air Pollution Information System; air quality
data)
GIRAFE (meta information on air quality networks and
stations)
