VIEWS maintains an extensive collection of
visibility photographs and images, as well as many webcam resources that
demonstrate regional haze conditions and visibility impairment episodes. These
images are selected for their relevance to the study
of visibility issues and for their usefulness in providing visual
motivation for the reduction of regional haze. |

Forest Service Air Quality Images
This web site provides public access to
real-time air quality information collected by the Forest Service. These
data are used to monitor air quality conditions in and near Forest Service
managed lands with the goal of protecting, and where necessary, working to
improve visibility and other resources affected by air pollution. Daily
image archives and historical image galleries depict air quality
conditions from national forests throughout the United States. Further
information on air pollution causes and effects, air quality monitoring
goals and methodologies, plus links to other sites of interest are also
provided. |
