Accurate monitoring of air quality can no longer meet people's needs. People hope to predict air quality in advance and make timely warnings and defenses to minimize the threat to life. This paper proposed a new air quality spatiotemporal prediction model to predict future air quality and is based on a large number of environmental data and a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network. In order to capture the spatial and temporal characteristics of the pollutant concentration data, the data

The model presented in this paper was compared with other baseline models on the hourly PM2.5 concentration data set collected at 35 air quality monitoring sites in Beijing from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2017. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed model is better than other baseline models.
