The [Air Quality Index] (https://www.iqa.environnement.gouv.qc.ca/contenu/index.asp) (AQI) statistics show how many days and hours the AQI is “good,” “acceptable,” or “bad.” The data file contains two tabs presenting results for different periods: annual and monthly. The results can be viewed in two units of measurement: Hours: The results are based on hourly values from the Air Quality Index and correspond to the number of hours of observation per year and per month. Days: The results are based on the maximum hourly value of the air quality index during a day and correspond to the number of observation days per year and per month. These statistics are calculated with [validated hourly air quality index data] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/rsqaq-donnees-horaires-indice-qualite-air). The [Air Quality Index Statistics] dashboard (https://www.iqa.environnement.gouv.qc.ca/contenu/index.asp) allows you to visualize these results. The IQA is an information and awareness tool designed to inform the population about the quality of ambient air in Quebec. If you have any questions about this data, contact the Info-Air department:.
