Understanding Pollen Maps
Our map visualizes forecast concentrations of airborne pollen, helping those with allergies anticipate symptoms and take preventive measures.
For broader European outlooks, the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) provides official pollen forecasts our data is based on.
Europe-wide automatic monitoring networks, such as the EUMETNET AutoPollen programme, aim to further improve accuracy and timeliness of such data.
Forecasts also depend on weather that affects pollen dispersion, such as wind, rain, and warmth.
Our Changing Climate
Climate change is impacting pollen seasons and intensity across Europe. You can learn more from the European Environment Agency (EEA).
Major Pollen Types in Europe
-
Tree Pollen
Our current tree pollen map shows common allergens like birch pollen map data and other tree species. The tree pollen map is especially important in early spring when forests and urban parks begin pollinating. In the UK pollen map, tree pollen appears earliest in southern regions.
Peak Season: February to May
-
Grass Pollen
The grass pollen map affects the largest number of allergy sufferers in Europe. Our pollen levels map for grass species shows varying intensities across different regions, with the pollen concentration map updated daily for accuracy.
Peak Season: May to July
-
Weed Pollen
Our ragweed allergy map and other weed pollen tracking systems monitor plants like mugwort across Europe. The ragweed map is particularly important for Eastern and Central European regions where this highly allergenic plant is spreading rapidly.
Peak Season: July to October
