I-Air Quality Index (AQI) imelela amazinga okungcoliswa komoya. Inikeza izinombolo esikalini esiphakathi kuka-0 no-500 futhi isetshenziselwa ukusiza ukunquma ukuthi ikhwalithi yomoya kulindeleke ukuthi ingabi nempilo nini.
Ngokusekelwe kumazinga ekhwalithi yomoya yombuso, i-AQI ihlanganisa izinyathelo zokungcola komoya okukhulu okuyisithupha: i-ozone, i-carbon monoxide, i-nitrogen dioxide, i-sulphur dioxide, nosayizi ababili bezinhlayiya. Endaweni yase-Bay, izinto ezingcolisayo okungenzeka kakhulu zibangele I-Spare the Air Alert i-ozone, phakathi kuka-April no-Okthoba, kanye ne-particle, phakathi kukaNovemba noFebruwari.
Inombolo ngayinye ye-AQI ibhekisela enanini elithile lokungcola emoyeni. Kuningi lokungcola okuyisithupha okumelelwe ishadi le-AQI, indinganiso yenhlangano ihambisana nenombolo engu-100. Uma ukugxiliswa kokungcolisa umoya kukhuphuka ngaphezu kuka-100, ikhwalithi yomoya ingaba yingozi emphakathini.

Ukufundwa okungaphansi kwe-100 ku-AQI akufanele kuthinte impilo yomphakathi jikelele, nakuba ukufundwa kwebanga eliphakathi kuka-50 kuya ku-100 kungase kuthinte abantu abazwela ngokungavamile. Amazinga angaphezu kuka-300 awavamile ukwenzeka e-United States.
Lapho Isifunda Somoya silungiselela isibikezelo sezulu se-AQI sansuku zonke, sikala ukugxila okulindelekile kokungcoliswa kwemvelo ngakunye kweziyisithupha ezinkulu ezifakwe kunkomba, siguqule ukufundwa sibe izinombolo ze-AQI, futhi sibike inombolo ephezulu kakhulu ye-AQI yendawo ngayinye yokubika. I-Spare the Air Alert ibizelwa Indawo yase-Bay lapho ikhwalithi yomoya kulindeleke ukuthi ingabi nempilo kunoma yiziphi izindawo ezinhlanu zokubika zesifunda.
