Abstract 

This data provides a comprehensive collection of air quality and meteorological data from several large cities in India. With 1,410 records, it includes key characteristics like the Air Quality Index (AQI) according to both U.S. and China standards, temperature, atmospheric pressure, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and timestamps. By combining pollution concentrations with weather variables, the dataset facilitates better insight into the spatial and temporal patterns of urban air quality. It is ideally suited for use in environmental monitoring, predictive modeling, and research on urban policy. This dataset can be used by researchers and practitioners for building machine learning models for predicting air quality, pollution trend analysis, and examining the impact of meteorological variables on air pollution concentrations in Indian metropolitan cities.

Instructions: 

This README file contains extensive documentation for the Multi-City Air Quality Dataset, describing its structure, attributes, and usage guidelines. It contains an explicit data dictionary describing each feature, as well as data loading, preprocessing, and analysis instructions. The file describes possible research applications like air quality forecasting, environmental trend analysis, and public health studies. It guarantees that users are able to properly understand the dataset and utilize it properly in diverse scientific and technical studies. This report is a key guide to allow for smooth incorporation of the dataset within research processes, ensuring reproducibility and inducing responsible data use.
