Details

Data is available for 2004-2013. The database offers quite useful filters (by type of pollution, pollutant, region etc.) Data are updated on a yearly basis.

The terms of use are not specified on publisher's website. I've asked the officials and have been told that data are freely available (and they could even offer an export on request). But he didn't specify the license.
