Arounded is a free map for tracking environmental signals over time — wildfire smoke, air quality, heat, and nearby facilities. It's built for real-life decisions: planning outdoor time, comparing neighborhoods, understanding what's nearby, and spotting patterns over weeks or months.
No account needed to browse. Sign in only if you want to save locations and track history.
Arounded uses public sources: NOAA, Open-Meteo, EPA, and Mapbox.
We don't sell user data, and we don't track you across the web.
Arounded helps you see environmental context the way people actually need it: not just a single number right now, but what’s been happening around the places you care about.
Use it to check wildfire smoke patterns, compare air quality day to day, and understand what's nearby — whether you're planning outdoor time, comparing neighborhoods, or asking bigger community questions.
Anyone who wants context about the environment around them
People sensitive to smoke, pollution, heat, or air quality
Folks planning outdoor time, travel, or daily routines
People comparing neighborhoods or considering a move
Community members tracking facilities and infrastructure
Researchers, analysts, and curious humans exploring patterns over time
Look up any location — or zoom out and browse outside your area.
Smoke, facilities, and infrastructure layers help you see what’s nearby.
Tap points and shapes to understand what they represent and why they matter.
Save a place and we log daily conditions so you can see patterns over the last 7/30 days.

Daily smoke plume polygons derived from satellite analysis. Used to calculate "smoke day" history for saved places.

AQI and PM2.5, plus daily conditions (like temperature highs). Logged daily for saved places.

Facility locations and regulatory datasets (coverage depends on layer availability).

Data center locations compiled from public listings and local documentation. Sources vary by region.
Smoke polygons are refreshed daily. For saved places, Arounded logs daily conditions once per day so you can see consistent history over time. “Right now” values can change quickly, so use official alerts for urgent situations.
We use NOAA's daily smoke plume polygons and check whether your saved location falls inside a plume that day (geometry-based detection). It's a consistent signal for pattern tracking — not a medical exposure measurement.
No. You can explore the map without signing in. An account is only for saving places and seeing your personal history over time.
Yes — the core map experience is free. If we ever add optional paid features later, basic access and transparency stay intact.
