SAAQIS The South African Air Quality Information System (SAAQIS),provides a common platform for managing air quality information in South Africa.It makes data available to stakeholders including the public and provides a mechanism to ensure uniformity in the way air quality data is managed i.e. captured, stored, validated, analysed and reported on in South Africa.Only data and reports that have been uploaded by monitoring station owners are available on SAAQIS. Network owners are responsible for the validation of monitoring data.

Near real time weather data for the South African Sugarcane Research Institute (SASRI) automatic weather station (AWS) network. Most of the stations are located in the South African sugarcane belt in eastern KwaZulu-Natal and Mpumalanga. Few of the stations in other SADC countries, typically on large sugarcane estates. Data are updated every 5-minutes, but there might be delays due to network or system glitches at some of the sites. Please note that these data have not been quality-checked, and stations may be offline, so please check that the ‘last update’ date and time are correct. Please report any suspicious values or offline stations to sasri.rtwd@sugar.org.za.
