What is AQI / PSI ?
- AQI translates pollution measurements into a health-related index. This site estimates a PM2.5-only US AQI from NEA readings using the US EPA NowCast method and current breakpoints.
- Singapore’s PSI tracks six pollutants, including PM2.5. The 24-hour PSI shown here is supplied by NEA.
| AQI | PSI | Air Pollution Level | Health Implications US AQI guidance |
|---|
- Matching categories are not equivalent readings: AQI and PSI use different methods and time windows.
- Sensitive Groups applies only to AQI.
- For activity advice, use NEA’s PM2.5 guide below.
US EPA Method (May 2026 guidance)
- Up to 12 hourly readings, with more weight on recent hours when levels change; at least two of the latest three are required.
- This PM2.5-only estimate is not an official Singapore AQI.
NEA PSI Advisory
What is PM 2.5 ?
PM2.5 means fine inhalable particles generally 2.5 micrometres or smaller. It is the dominant pollutant during transboundary haze in Singapore.
The middle reading is NEA’s 1-hour PM2.5 concentration in µg/m³. It is a concentration, not an AQI or PSI score.
| 1-hour PM2.5 (µg/m³) | Band | Descriptor |
|---|---|---|
| 0–55 | 1 | Normal |
| 56–150 | 2 | Elevated |
| 151–250 | 3 | High |
| 251+ | 4 | Very High |
