8 years ago All of these parameter plots are interesting. And agree, it will, at minimum be interesting to note the most common parameter combinations.
I wonder: perhaps this plot: https://github.com/masalmon/openaq_figures/blob/master/code_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-4-1.png
could be taken and each bar could be separated by some sort of region? Maybe by country, but probably too busy a figure. Maybe by continent, but that could be too coarse - though I lean toward that more than to separate out into 18 countries.
If it is easy, could you share the x axis in elongated form (could be truncated in the y-direction) for this graph or as the raw data in a spreadsheet? https://github.com/masalmon/openaq_figures/blob/master/code_files/figure-html/unnamed-chunk-6-1.png
...the combo frequency is def interesting and would like to see the breakdown.

@RocketD0g other part of the discussion. I won't do anything else than this copy-paste today. ;-)
Regarding the parameters, it's harder to show all info. I've made a barplot of number of stations per parameter, and a histogram of the number of parameters per station. However one could also want to show the variety of monitored parameters depending on countries, or what combination of monitored parameters are the most common. I've made a last figure where one sees the number of locations for each possible combination parameters. It's ugly, but it's worth knowing which ones are the most frequent: it might be worth writing in the text.
