Sanitary condition of atmospheric air: samples in cities and rural areas
From 2020 to 2024, millions of atmospheric air samples were tested nationwide, and this data reflects the dynamics of these inspections. Rows categorize indicators by settlement type, allowing for a comparison of monitoring intensity in urban and rural areas, as well as the number of samples exceeding hygienic standards. Annual data are presented in thousands, covering a five-year observation period of atmospheric conditions across different types of terrain

How to read this table
Indicators are grouped by location, enabling a comparison of workload in urban and rural areas. Separate rows record both the total number of measurements conducted and the number of instances where established standards were exceeded. Comparing these annual data helps assess the scale of environmental monitoring and its changes over the five-year observation cycle conducted by sanitary supervision services
What is visible in these numbers
“Number of air samples examined, thousand units — in urban settlements” leads the table with 1,457, “Number of air samples examined, thousand units — of which exceeding permissible concentration of pollutants in ambient air of settlements, percent” closes it with 0.4. The gap between them is 3,643-fold.
