Accessing the API data

There are two domains where the same data is served.

• https://api.luftdaten.info - This is optimized for receiving data.
• https://data.sensor.community - This is faster and more reliable for serving data, so should be used for reporting cases. Where it is not supported for a certain endpoint, the previous domain must be used.

We have some API endpoints to access the sensor data. The data is updated either every 5 minutes or every one minute due to performance reasons.

V1

• http://data.sensor.community/static/v1/data.json - all measurements of the last 5 minutes for all sensors.
• http://data.sensor.community/airrohr/v1/filter/{query} - all measurements of the last 5 minutes filtered by query
  • type={sensor type} : comma-separated list of sensor types, e.g. SDS011,BME280
  • area={lat,lon,distance} : all sensors within a max radius e.g. 52.5200,13.4050,10 (Berlin)
  • box={lat1,lon1,lat2,lon2} : all sensors in a 'box' with the given coordinates e.g. 52.1,13.0,53.5,13.5
  • country={country code} : comma-separated list of country codes. Example BE,DE,NL

Discontinued or moved:

• /v1/sensor/{apiID}/ - all measurements of the last 5 minutes for one sensor.

V2

• https://api.luftdaten.info/static/v2/data.json - average of all measurements per sensor of the last 5 minutes for all sensors.
• http://data.sensor.community/static/v2/data.1h.json - average of all measurements per sensor of the last hour.
• http://data.sensor.community/static/v2/data.24h.json - average of all measurements per sensor of the 24 hours.
• https://api.luftdaten.info/static/v2/data.dust.min.json - same as data.json but dust sensors only .
• https://api.luftdaten.info/static/v2/data.temp.min.json - same as data.json but temp./humidity/air pressure sensors only.
