Air Quality Health Index was created in 2005.
The Air Quality Index (AQI) also known as the Air Pollution Index (API) or Pollutant Standard Index (PSI)), is an indicator of air quality, based on pollutants that have adverse effects on human health and the environment.
An air quality index of 0-15 is considered good, with little to no risk to health. This level indicates that the air quality is clean and poses minimal health concerns for the general population.

An air quality index (AQI) level of 301 or higher is considered hazardous, indicating that the air quality poses significant health risks, especially for sensitive groups. It is crucial to take precautions when AQI levels reach this point to minimize exposure to pollutants and protect one's health.
