Air Quality

AQI, pollen & health guidance

Air Quality provides real-time air quality data, pollen forecasts, and health recommendations for any location worldwide. You get US and European AQI scores, individual pollutant levels, UV index, and a breakdown of six pollen types โ€” all from a single query.

It's useful for anyone making location-based decisions around outdoor activity, travel, or health management. People with asthma, COPD, or allergies get personalized risk scores that combine air quality, UV, and pollen into a single recommendation. The multi-day forecast covers up to seven days so you can plan ahead rather than just checking the current moment.

What you can do

  • Get real-time AQI (US and European), pollutant concentrations, UV index, and pollen counts for any city or coordinates
  • Forecast air quality up to 7 days ahead with daily min/max/avg breakdowns
  • Get pollen forecasts with type-by-type breakdowns for allergy sufferers
  • Generate personalized health recommendations for sensitive groups (asthma, COPD, allergies)
  • Find nearby air quality monitoring stations

Who it's for

People with respiratory conditions or allergies planning their day. Parents checking conditions before outdoor activities. Travel planners comparing air quality across cities. Developers building location-aware health or weather applications.

How to use it

  1. Call current_air_quality with a city name or lat/lon coordinates for an immediate snapshot
  2. Use air_quality_forecast to plan ahead โ€” it returns daily min/max/avg for all key pollutants
  3. Use pollen_forecast if allergies are the main concern โ€” it breaks down counts by pollen type
  4. Call health_recommendations for personalized guidance based on a person's specific conditions

Getting started

current_air_quality runs immediately with no setup โ€” just pass a city name like "London" or coordinates.
