About AQ Tracker
The Air Quality Tracker allows users to monitor historical data, near real-time satellite observations, ground-based measurements, and forecasts in one place. It strengthens the capabilities of key partners like Thailand's Pollution Control Department and Lao PDR's Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, while supporting decision-makers across Southeast Asia. With NASA's collaboration, the tool now provides air quality data at a 5km resolution, covers the entire region, and integrates new data from Korea's GEMS. User-friendly yet scientifically robust, the AQ Tracker is essential for tracking air quality, detecting fires, and managing transboundary haze efficiently.
