EHTB Air Representative 20080925 The Countylevel_Ozone_indicators_2001.xls file is the output data file from a SAS program which calculates the air indicators as developed by CDC's Environmental Public Health Tracking (EPHT) Air Team and approved by the Content Working Group (CWG) steering committee. The indicators use EPA air quality data (from ambient air monitors) and the methdology described in the air team's indicator report. The file contains, for each county with complete monitoring data: the year, state and county FIPS code (individually and combined), county name, county population, number of days above benchmark (default federal NAAQS), and the person-days above benchmark (default federal NAAQS). The data are intended for use in CDC's EPHT portal for displays describing ozone-related air quality across the U.S. by county. They are not intended for performing health assessments and otherwise directly relating to health data. 2006 ground condition Complete None planned -77.119905000000003 -76.909395000000004 38.995106999999997 38.791518000000003 ISO 19115 Topic Category environment EPA GIS Keyword Thesaurus Air None United States None As general indicators of air quality over space and time.
