What temporal resolution do you need?  Average overall, per month, per day?

Daily average might be difficult, as it's hard to measure air quality from space when it's cloudy.

Absolutely. That makes sense. What do you think would be a reasonable option then - weekly/fortnightly?

The longer the averaging time and averaging area, the less gaps you will get. Monthly gridded data can be downloaded directly.  I don't have time for a full answer, but have a look at [Sentinel-5 data](https://sentinel.esa.int/web/sentinel/missions/sentinel-5/data-products) which could be a good start.

# District/province wise air quality data for South Asia (2010 onward)

(Asked by: username_0 on 2020-01-23)

I would like to create a district/province-level air quality data for all the countries in South Asia from 2010 onward using satellite data.

As someone with absolutely zero background in remote-sensing, could anyone please suggest (relevant papers, websites, anything really) how do I go on about this?

Thank you!
