The AirNow Fire and Smoke Map provides real-time air quality data, including fire locations, smoke plumes, and particle pollution levels, to help users protect their health from wildfire smoke exposure. The map displays AQI categories, uses permanent and temporary air quality monitors, and provides Smoke Outlooks for areas affected by large wildfires. It also offers recommendations for reducing smoke exposure, with information tailored to specific air quality conditions. The resource has How to Use the Map instructions that explain how to interpret air quality data, navigate the interactive map, and understand the icons. It details how users can search for locations, view historical air quality data, and access activity recommendations based on AQI levels. The resource equips individuals, communities, and public health officials with essential tools to track wildfire smoke and make informed decisions about outdoor activities.
