Nice find! So some things to look into:
[ ] Government-monitored stations? Perhaps contracted to a private company
[ ] Data not available through EEA
[ ] Data is ‘raw’ and reported in physical concentrations not in an 'Air Quality Index' or equivalent (e.g. AQI, PSI, API) format, with units (ug/m3 or ppm)
[ ] Data is at the ‘station-level' with geographic coordinates, not aggregated into a higher (e.g. city) level (coordinates found by clicking on each location)
[ ] Data is from measurements averaged between 10 minutes and 24 hours (seems to be hourly), and we know whether the timestamp is for the beginning or end of the measurement period
[ ] Programmatic access? (Protip: look at network calls as the page loads to look for internal APIs, files etc so you don't have to scrape data directly from html)
Is it a private or state-owned Ukrainian company? An interesting and useful project, I would like to order the compliance Ukrainian company. If this company has the necessary certificates, then you can cooperate with it.
According to https://eco-city.org.ua/article?id=4, it looks like EcoCity is a private company
This is Ukraine's updated site. All the stations can be found here. I looks like the data can be found by using the station id number in the id query for the url. There are a lot of locations here that are not reporting to the EEA, and it looks like a valuable source. Looks like they are mostly measuring pm1, pm10, and pm2.5
@majesticio given that this looks like its LCS and a private company, that why its not likely not included in EEA. Since its LCS and likely not regulatory we should prioritize accordingly.
A new source source for Ukraine, the source mentioned in #542, does not seem to exist anymor
The source I found is: https://eco-city.org.ua/, but I am not sure if we can pull from this site, it says it is public but at the same time it looks like to be a private company behind it
