Abstract
An air quality index (AQI) system, including web-based AQI information dissemination software designed for India, is presented
in this paper. The website is designed for online calculation and display of nation-wide AQI. The site (http://home.iitk.ac.in/~mukesh)
is currently active for historical data (1988–1998). The website renders a quick, simple and an elegant looking response to an AQI
query. The display of AQI is through an air quality-meter with animation and colors for various index categories. The other features
of the website include reporting of pollutant responsible for index, pollutants exceeding the standards, health effects with facilitates
for inter/intra city comparison of AQI using multiple windows. In all, over 70 cities/towns with over 270 locations (spread all over
India) are covered on the website
