In this study, time series of PM2.5, PM10 and O3 in the city of Bogotá (Colombia) were analyzed using ARIMA models, to evaluate their geographical distribution and determine activation periods of extreme episodes of air pollution. The geographic behavior of pollutants was studied from the ARIMA structure and atypical concentration values were detected, which were analyzed with respect to Colombian regulations and climatic conditions that could favor their occurrence. The models suggest a sectorization of pollutant concentration levels in the city (north, center and south). The periods with the highest susceptibility to exceedances on a daily level are recorded between 6-10 a.m. for PM2.5-10 and between 11 a.m.-4 p.m. for O3. These episodes are presented in January, February and March. The direction of the wind coming from the southwest of the city has the greatest influence on pollution episodes.
