The California Air Resources Board has released a new DVD in February 2008 entitled "2008 Air Quality Data DVD" with 27 years of air quality data. The DVD contains 27 years of criteria pollutant air quality data (1980-2006), 17 years of toxics air quality data (1990-2006), 14 years of dichotomous sampler (Dichot) data (1988-2001), seven years of PM2.5 speciated data (2000-2006), and 13 years of non-methane organic compound (NMOC) data (1994-2006). This DVD is an update to the air quality data DVD released May 2007. The 2008 Air Quality Data DVD can be ordered at the following Internet web page: "California Air Quality Data Products."

The 2008 Air Quality Data DVD has many features including an Access 2003 runtime program for the Annual Data, a downloadable "Daily Data" program which runs off your hard drive, PM2.5 annual statistics based upon the national 24-hr standard of 35 ug/m3, and annual statistics for nitrogen dioxide based upon the new state standards. This DVD stores the data in many forms (ASCII, DBF, etc.) used by analysts who process their own data. This DVD also include annual and daily summaries in table format, which are accessible through selection buttons and pull-down menus. Graphs can be produced for annual data trends.

Using the DVD, the data for the full range of years are stored on this DVD.
