Methodology

Active locations Stations that have reported in the last 24 hours.

GS Exceedance Proportion of stations whose 24h average PM₂.₅ exceeded Ghana Standard 35 µg/m³.

AQI Distribution Proportion of sensor-days in each US EPA PM₂.₅ AQI category.

Data cleaning Zero, negative, and null readings excluded; 75% completeness proxy applied.
