datastore ActiveURL: https://data.des.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/file/0037/83899/aucklandpoint-aq-2010.csv
Period of operation: 1 January to 31 December 2010 (long path instrument offline from 18 September; PM10 instrument installed 7 June)
Site location: Latitude: -23.8351; Longitude: 151.2539
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 site classification: Neighbourhood
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 compliance (pollutants): Complies, except for:
- DOAS light path between 4 metres and 25 metres above ground level
AS/NZS 3580.14 compliance (meteorology): Complies, except for:
- Located on southern side of slope below a ridge
- Trees within 20 metres of the monitoring site
Wind: Ultrasonic sensor
- Height above ground level: 10 metres
- The wind direction sensor is aligned to magnetic north. The reported wind direction is referenced to true north by application of a magnetic declination correction of +10 degrees to the sensor output value.
Temperature: Capacitive ceramic sensor
Ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, benzene, toluene, xylenes (total), formaldehyde: Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) analyser operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.15
- Value is average concentration over 680 metre light path running north-south from ‑23.8351, 151.2539 to -23.8409,151.2550
- Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on instrument calibration data
PM10: Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) operated in accordance with AS 3580.9.8
- Measurement values do not compensate for loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter
- Instrument output values are adjusted in accordance with US EPA equivalence designation method EQPM-1090-079 requirements (scaled by 1.03, offset by +3.0)
- After adjustment, negative hourly PM10 concentrations less than -0.5 µg/m3 are removed and concentrations between -0.5 µg/m3 and 0.0 µg/m3 are set to 0.0 µg/m3
