         3. **Explore the map**: Click on markers to see detailed information about each monitoring station
         
-        ## About the Data:
-        - Fetches data from 100+ locations across all 50 states to capture the full monitoring network
-        - Data is updated hourly from state, local, tribal, and federal air quality agencies
-        - Colors indicate Air Quality Index (AQI) levels from Good (green) to Hazardous (dark red)
-        - Each search covers a 100-mile radius to capture nearby monitoring stations
+        ## Enhanced Coverage:
+        - **Comprehensive Grid Search**: Covers 200+ major cities and metropolitan areas  
+        - **Maximum Radius**: 200-mile search radius for complete regional coverage
+        - **Strategic Targeting**: Includes airports, universities, and industrial areas with monitors
+        - **Minimal Deduplication**: Preserves multiple sensors per location for maximum data
+        - **Lightning Fast**: 0.05-second delays for rapid data collection
