How is air quality measured and analysed?
The Estiq air quality model combines data from the national monitoring network and looks at three main components:
Smaller than 2.5 micrometres, mainly from heating and traffic. Consistently below 4 µg/m³ in the forested areas of Pirita and Nõmme.
Mostly from vehicle exhaust. Higher on busy arterial roads (Liivalaia, Gonsiori) and low inside residential blocks.
International scale from 0 to 500. A value below 25 means exceptionally clean air.
