Tools and Guidance

The Air Quality Tools and Guidance section provides access to the documentation, applications and reference resources supporting European air quality reporting.

European air quality reporting is currently undergoing the transition from Reportnet 2 to Reportnet 3. During this transition period, both reporting systems remain operational and reporting countries may need to use resources supporting either reporting environment.

The available resources are organised according to the reporting infrastructure they support.
