URL: https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/fc8d4550-1d2f-4e56-a2db-7b5f11b903ed/resource/a4818f00-0311-4960-839f-42f967a71322/download/westmackayaq2016.csv

Period of operation: 1 January to 31 December 2016
Site location: Latitude: -21.1595; Longitude: 149.1549
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 site classification: Neighbourhood
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 compliance (pollutants): Complies fully
AS/NZS 3580.14 compliance (meteorology): Complies fully

Wind: Ultrasonic sensor

  • Height above ground: 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 +9 degrees to the sensor output value.

Temperature: Capacitive ceramic sensor
PM10: Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) Model 1405 operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.9.16 (excluding FDMS requirements)

  • Measurement values do not compensate for loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter.
  • Reported concentrations are uncorrected instrument output values.
  • Negative hourly PM10 concentrations less than -0.5 µg/m^3 are removed and concentrations between -0.5 µg/m^3 and 0.0 µg/m^3 are set to 0.0 µg/m^3.

Visibility-reducing particles: Nephelometer operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.12.1

  • Detector spectral response centred at 530 nm.
  • Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data.
