💡 Understanding The Metrics: AQI vs PM2.5 vs PSI
Confused by different numbers? Here is a quick breakdown of what each reading measures and when to use it.
1-Hr PM2.5
- • Microscopic particles (30x smaller than a human hair).
- • Main culprit in haze: Penetrates directly into lungs & bloodstream.
AQI
- • A standardized index that is used globally. Developed by the US EPA.
- • AQI (Air Quality Index) indicates how clean or polluted the air is and what the air quality may mean for your health.
- • Calculated using real-time 1-hour PM2.5 concentrations
24-Hr PSI
- • Singapore's official index managed by NEA.
- • 24-hour moving average across 6 key pollutants.
- • Updates gradually to reflect day-long cumulative exposure.
