The dataset generated from the primary dataset would assist to understand the state of air pollution over Bussau. It also serves as a reference to guide the choice of ground measuring equipments in the area. The aerosol constant and tunning constant over Bussau is 0.6694 and 0.1354 respectively. The maximum percentage aerosol loading is given as 14.8%. Keywords: Air pollution, Aerosol, Bussau, Threats, Sustainability
