About this reading

The IPU figure here is computed from Open-Meteo's modelled PM2.5 against the Department of Environment's own sub-index bands. It is an estimate, not an official reading, and may differ from the DOE's figure. The official IPU accounts for six pollutants; this uses PM2.5 alone, so it can read low but will not raise a false alarm.
