Aldehyde-ketone family volatile organic compound concentrations sampled on the island of Montreal. The dataset shows concentrations by station and sampling date as part of the Air Quality Monitoring Network (RSQA). It is published by the Government and Municipalities of Québec under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
Use Cases
- Analyze temporal trends of specific aldehydes and ketones based on sampling dates
- Compare pollutant concentrations across different monitoring stations in Montreal
- Model urban air quality improvements based on volatile organic compound monitoring
- Assess seasonal variations in aldehyde-ketone family compounds
Strengths
- Data is part of a formal Air Quality Monitoring Network (RSQA) program
- Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- The list of stations may differ from year to year, complicating longitudinal analysis
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
