Air quality forecast extended 96 hours

Ambee’s air quality forecasting just got significantly more powerful. We’ve extended our forecast horizon from 48 to 96 hours, offering a full four-day outlook on pollution trends across key locations worldwide.

This new capability is now available globally via custom request and is designed for seamless integration into forecasting engines, strategic models, and environmental risk systems.

What’s new?

Ambee’s 96-hour air quality forecasts are available in two temporal formats: hourly and daily intervals. Both provide comprehensive coverage of key pollutants—including PM2.5 and PM10 (linked to respiratory and cardiovascular health), NO₂ and SO₂ (from traffic and industrial emissions), CO (an indicator of incomplete combustion), and O₃ (a major smog component)—as well as aggregated AQI levels, calibrated to India, UK, US, and more national indices.

Built on Ambee’s statistically consistent spatial grid, both formats are fully queryable for any user-defined location—from coordinates to postal codes, city boundaries, or custom polygons.

This enables truly hyperlocal, globally scalable environmental intelligence, ready for use across public health, infrastructure, and operational systems.

This version delivers hour-by-hour projections for pollutant concentrations, offering fine-grained insight ideal for real-time responsiveness, exposure risk modeling, and operational planning.

Four days ahead in a fast-moving world

Air quality disruptions rarely arrive with a warning. They cascade—overwhelming emergency rooms, halting construction, rerouting deliveries, and cancelling outdoor plans. Often, the difference between managing these disruptions and scrambling to respond comes down to lead time.

With 96-hour forecasts, that lead time doubles. Hospitals can prepare for patient surges. Public health officials can issue timely, targeted alerts. Logistics teams can reroute fleets before exposure risks or delays take hold. Environmental consultants can schedule projects during clearer windows.

This isn’t just more air quality data—it’s a shift from reaction to strategy. In a world where air quality ripples through health, infrastructure, and commerce, four days of visibility transform fragmented response into coordinated, proactive action.

What’s ahead

This release is part of Ambee’s broader roadmap to deliver longer-range, hyperlocal, and actionable environmental intelligence. Coming soon:

  • 30-day weather forecasts
  • 30-day pollen forecasts
  • Enhanced Natural Disasters API with LLM-based interpretation, intelligent end-date estimation, custom alert levels, and streamlined alert categories
