Description

This tabular dataset is the result of an analysis supporting the '[Status of Fine Particulate Matter in B.C.](http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/soe/indicators/air/fine-pm.html)' indicator produced by [Environmental Reporting BC](http://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content?id=FF80E0B985F245CEA62808414D78C41B). The results contain the [Canadian Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS)](http://www.ccme.ca/en/resources/air/aqms.html#anchor1) metrics for fine particulate matter (PM2.5) for air quality monitoring stations and [air zones](https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content?id=895F1B8372C44D4FBC2FD43602749747) in B.C. It contains results for the reporting periods 2011-2013, 2014-2016, 2016-2018, 2018-2020, 2019-2021, 2020-2022, 2021-2023 and 2022-2024. The analysis uses the following source datasets: - [Air Quality Monitoring: Verified Hourly Data](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/77eeadf4-0c19-48bf-a47a-fa9eef01f409) - [Air Quality Monitoring Station metadata](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/01867404-ba2a-470e-94b7-0604607cfa30) - [British Columbia Air Zones](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/e8eeefc4-2826-47bc-8430-85703d328516) The methods and [**R**](https://www.r-project.org/) code for reproducing this indicator summary data is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/bcgov/pm25-caaqs-indicator).
