What's with the blank spots?
If you see white or blank areas on the map, it’s because there isn’t enough publicly-available and reliable data to display an accurate gradient.
AirView highlights where data is strong, and clearly shows where more sensors are needed.
Research-backed data
Backed by 20+ years of research and data from 20,000 ground-level sensors and monitors, our real-time calibration ensures precise results.
90% confidence or higher
AirView’s CoreDI Visualization Server transforms air quality data into real-time heat maps, calibrating low-cost and public sensors for 90%+ confidence and delivering near reference-grade insights without the high cost.
More than just a map
AirView uses real-time data to create easy to understand visuals like maps, pollutant icons, wind direction, and more to make it accessible to anyone.
We get our data from federal-grade EPA AirNow monitors, community-level PurpleAir sensors, our own AirU devices, and other third-party sources.
Our platform calibrates this data in real time, correcting for known discrepancies to create a more accurate and actionable picture of local air quality.
When there’s no reliable data in an area, we don’t fill in the gaps with guesses. We only show you data with 90%+ accuracy. What you’re seeing on our map is the actual air quality data available to the public.
Our map overlays are exclusively accessible in regions where we maintain an ample deployment of sensors. This requirement is imperative to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data represented on these overlays.
When we have a robust network of sensors in a given area, we can confidently generate these overlays, offering users a detailed and trustworthy perspective of air quality conditions in that specific location.
Will AirView display my street address? Is there a risk of revealing my exact location?
You have the option to mark your sensor as private/public and indoor/outdoor. The Outdoor Public option is the only one that will show the location of the sensor. Choosing Private Outdoor will hide your location while still contributing to our CoreDI models. Selecting Indoor will omit your data from our models and keep your sensor location hidden.
When using the API, you will need to do some programming to interact with it effectively.
We will assist you! One of our team members would be happy to help you set things up for your project. We also have dedicated resources with examples and documentation available.

Data sources?
The wind data displayed on the map is sourced from the National Weather Service (NWS) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), trusted authorities for meteorological information.
Accuracy?
NWS data is highly reliable and widely used in weather forecasting. However, localized conditions such as terrain and obstacles can influence actual wind patterns.
Visualizations?
The wind data shown on the map is a representation of direction and speed at 10 meters above ground level. Wind speed is represented both by size and velocity. Speed ranges from 0-120mph. The data is provided using Grid-Point Statistical Interpolation (GSI)
Data sources?
We use two main sources to track active wildfires:
- IMSR API: This provides information on active wildfires across the USA.
- CWFIS API: This delivers updates on active wildfires in Canada.
How do I view wildfires on the map?
You can toggle wildfires to show up on AirView by clicking the button on the top right. Wildfires are marked with a fire icon on the map. Hovering over the icon will display more details about the fire.
What details are shown about each wildfire?
When you view a wildfire on the map, you’ll see:
- The wildfire’s name
- Its location (latitude and longitude
- The current size of the fire (in acres)
- The start date of the wildfire
- Whether it is fully contained or partially contained
Can I see info about smaller or less significant fires?
No, we display wildfires that are larger than 50 acres. Smaller fires below this size threshold are not shown on the map, as we prioritize larger, more significant incidents that may pose greater threats or require wider attention.
