Air Quality Index#

This plug-in gets air quality information from http://aqicn.org. Through the WAN IP address the next nearby sensor station will be discovered. The geo location can also be set manually.

    • Manually location set

    • Air Quality

    • Cautionary statement

    • Carbon monoxide level

    • Sulfur dioxide level

    • Temperature

    • Humidity

    • Pressure

    • Wind speed

NOTE: If you encounter that a value stays to zero, it means the sensor station doesn’t support that value.

Besides the air pollution level the plug-in also states a cautionary statement. Both states can be used to let nymea notify you about the pollution level and inform you what precautions should be taken.

* This might be provided through the nymea community API Key provider or by setting a custom API Key in the plug-in settings.
