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

NameTypeRequiredDescription
phenomenonstringyesExact phenomenon / sensor title, e.g. “PM2.5”, “PM10”, “Temperatur”, “rel. Luftfeuchte”, “Luftdruck”, “Lautstärke”
latitudenumbernoCenter latitude (use with longitude + radius_km, instead of bbox)
longitudenumbernoCenter longitude
radius_kmnumbernoRadius in km around the center, 0.1-25 (default 5)
bboxstringnoBounding box as “west,south,east,north” in degrees, e.g. “13.3,52.45,13.5,52.55” (overrides center+radius)
window_hoursnumbernoHow far back to look for each sensor’s latest reading, 1-24 hours (default 2)
