Abstract: It has been reported that respiratory dysfunction is responsible for 20% of deaths in Togo. There is need to know (in numerical value) the current state and future prediction of aerosol loading over the research site. The research is based on remote sensing techniques and proven mathematical models. Fifteen years primary (aerosol optical depth) dataset was obtained from the Multi-angle Imaging Spectro-Radiometer (MISR). The secondary datasets (aerosol loading, particles sizes, Angstrom exponent and the statistics of the primary dataset) was generated from the primary data. The average deposition efficiency of aerosols (into the human lungs) in the region is about 0.955. This research provides vital data for health referencing and on-ground investigation over Dapaong-Togo.
