Returns air quality data for a single point (geographic name or GPS)

Air quality forecast for a single location

Location specification

The location of the weather data is the only parameter that is required and must be specified. There are two ways to do this:

1. Specify the GPS coordinates of the location using the parameters lat and lon.
2. OR specify the name of the place using the parameter place_id. To obtain the place_id for the location you want, please use endpoints /find_places_prefix (search by prefix) or /find_places (search by full name).

• For a detailed description of variables, please consult ⚠️ <a href="https://www.meteosource.com/documentation#description_aq" target="_blank">description of variables</a> ⚠️ in Documentation or Schema of the response (link next to Example value in the Responses section below).
• Do not make any assumptions about the number and ordering of the variables. New variables and sections may be introduced in the future. Always check the data are present before you try to use them.
• The response contains an Expires header, which defines the point at which the API response will not change for the same request. We highly recommend using this to avoid unnecessary requests and increase the performance of your app.
