The regional transmission characteristics as well as the local emission and external transmission contribution of fine particulate matter in the eastern North China Plain were investigated using multisource data. Himawari-8 aerosol optical depth can represent the whole layer of air pollution situation; hourly aerosol optical depth were used to reconstruct the route of fine particulate matter horizontal transmission, and the transmission speed was calculated and compared with the near-surface wind speed. A case study conducted on 22 September 2019 showed the pollutant was mainly transmitted from Tangshan to Dezhou, and the transmission speed was greater than the near-surface wind speed. We also found that pollution air mass had 2–3 h of diffusion delay in the near-surface pollutant monitoring results. In addition, the vertical diffusion of pollution mainly occurred at low altitude below 1.8 km. The contribution of local emission and external transmission was inferred in this study with the help of the WRF-Chem model, the pollution in the northeastern portion of the study area mainly derived from local emissions, while the southwestern portion of the study area was mainly affected by external transport. Among them, the local emission accounted for 79.15% of the pollution in Tangshan, while the external transmission contributed 60.28% of the fine particulate matter concentration in Dezhou.
