There is a description of the API for developers

There are two options for the API - XML: www.svivaaqm.net/api/stations JSON: http://www.svivaaqm.net/api/stations?type=json

In addition, The Israeli Ministry for Environment Protection provides a fairly primitive system (in Hebrew) for displaying aggregated emissions' data on a map. The website and the data it contains are property of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the State of Israel:
