Hourly Air Quality Observations from the BC Government

A real example of hourly qaqced air pollutant concentrations for calculating AQHI and AQHI+. Data were collected using airquality::get_bcgov_data(stations = "all") for the period 2018-01-01 00:00:00 to 2018-12-31 23:00:00 (PST). QA/QC performed by the data provider. Any missing values were omitted, sites with less than 80% complete data were omitted, and site ids were anonymized.
