opensensemap_area_average
Pack: opensensemap · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/opensensemap/mcp
Average one phenomenon across all citizen science sensors (openSenseMap / senseBox network) in an area — hyperlocal neighborhood-level temperature, PM2.5/PM10 air quality, humidity, pressure or noise from many independent community stations. Give either a bounding box or a center point + radius_km. Aggregates the latest reading per sensor over the recent window client-side (the network has no fast server-side aggregation).
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
phenomenon | string | yes | Exact phenomenon / sensor title, e.g. “PM2.5”, “PM10”, “Temperatur”, “rel. Luftfeuchte”, “Luftdruck”, “Lautstärke” |
latitude | number | no | Center latitude (use with longitude + radius_km, instead of bbox) |
longitude | number | no | Center longitude |
radius_km | number | no | Radius in km around the center, 0.1-25 (default 5) |
bbox | string | no | Bounding box as “west,south,east,north” in degrees, e.g. “13.3,52.45,13.5,52.55” (overrides center+radius) |
window_hours | number | no | How far back to look for each sensor’s latest reading, 1-24 hours (default 2) |
