Air Quality Forecasting

Inform your community about air quality through customized forecasts. We work with government and industry clients to generate forecasts and alert the public, stakeholders, and decision makers about air pollution conditions and impacts.

Criteria-Pollutant Forecasting

Rely on Sonoma Technology’s forecasting experience, advanced models, and statistical tools to produce accurate and timely forecasts. From localized wintertime wood burning PM2.5 impacts, to summertime regional ozone events, to PM10 dust episodes, Sonoma Technology addresses the concerns for specific regions.

Public Outreach Support

Get the air quality information you need to address public and media inquiries and educate community members. Our forecasters provide up-to-date meteorological and air quality information.

Smoke Forecasting

Predict wildfire smoke impacts on air quality. Because smoke can have a significant and sudden impact, Sonoma Technology monitors fires daily and uses a customized in-house model that incorporates satellite-based fire detections to predict local- to national-scale smoke impacts on air quality.

Websites and Apps

Engage and inform the public with informative, customized websites, apps, graphics, and videos that show current and forecasted pollution levels.

Forecasting Tools

Use our innovative models and statistical tools to streamline your forecasting operations.

Forecasting Models

Model air quality impacts from wildfire smoke and manmade and natural sources. Our BlueSky Gateway numerical grid model incorporates daily pollution from smoke in its ozone and PM2.5 concentration predictions.

Statistical Tools

Better predict pollution levels using our automated statistical tools, which forecast Air Quality Index (AQI) levels based on predicted meteorological conditions.

Prescribed Burn Decision Support

Use meteorological and air quality models to support your management plans and predict how smoke from potential prescribed burns would affect air quality in your region.
