Direct downloads

Direct downloads are way faster than on-demand extracts, and you can skip the service processing queue.

Simply select the country and pollutant you are interested in from the dropdowns below.

Please, be aware that not every pollutant is reported by every country.

Files are generated every 12 hours (at 2:00 and 14:00), and contain 48 hours worth of data.
The format provided is the same as CSV2 from the on-demand extracts.

Alternatively, you can build the URL yourself with this simple pattern:
//discomap.eea.europa.eu/map/fme/latest/$(Country)_$(Pollutant).csv Use the countrycode and pollutant as shown in the form above.

Some examples:

  • NO2 for spain:
    //discomap.eea.europa.eu/map/fme/latest/ES_NO2.csv
  • PM10 for Denmark:
    //discomap.eea.europa.eu/map/fme/latest//latest/DK_PM10.csv
and so on. Data is available for the 8 main pollutants.
