Brief description
Annual hourly air quality and meteorological data by monitoring site for the 2018 calendar year. For more information on air quality, including live air data, please visit [https://www.qld.gov.au/environment/pollution/monitoring/air](https://www.qld.gov.au/environment/pollution/monitoring/air).**Data resolution:** One-hour average values (one-hour sum for rainfall)
**Data row timestamp:** Start of averaging period
**Missing data/not monitored:** Blank cell
**Calm conditions:** No hourly average wind direction is reported when the hourly average wind speed is zero
**Barometric pressure:** Values are at monitoring station elevation, not corrected to mean sea level
**Daily zero/span response check:** Automated instrument zero/span response checks are conducted daily between midnight and 1am at Queensland Government sites (can differ at industry sites). Where this takes place an ambient hourly value cannot be reported.
**Sampling height:** Four metres above ground (unless otherwise indicated)
