ChinaHighPM₂.₅ (2022–Present)

Here is the big data-derived seamless (spatial coverage = 100%) daily, monthly, and yearly 1 km (i.e., D1K, M1K, and Y1K) ground-level PM_2.5 dataset for China from 2022 to the present. This dataset exhibits high quality, with a cross-validation coefficient of determination (CV-R²) of 0.92, a root-mean-square error (RMSE) of 10.76 µg m^-3, and a mean absolute error (MAE) of 6.32 µg m^-3 on a daily basis.
