"Share your data with IQAir" not working, maybe others

I raise up this thread as I check my station on IQAir.
PM10 seems consistent between IQAir and the Airgradient dashboard but the PM2.5 is wrong
for example :
On dashboard

On IQAir

PM10 seems OK

Is there some correction from IQAir? the value on IQAir is double than the value on the airgradient dashboard

Edit : I choose the corrected EPA formula (the lowest one) value and IQAir take the raw value.
Btw wich one is good? the EPA formula or the raw value?
Edit 2 : Corrected EPA formula is consistent with nearby national organisation stations

@Achim_AirGradient, could you ask IQAir to take the corrected formula EPA if the user ask for?

We are in touch with IQ Air on this already. I hope they will switch to the EPA corrected values soon.

Is there a modification between IQAir and airgradient?
I can see european stations on Airgradient map but no one on IQAir map

(IQAir map - Airgradient sensors)

Thanks

Hi @Hiigara !

Some locations share their data only with AirGradient and not with IQAir.
You can configure this by navigating to the ‘Edit Location’ settings and opening the ‘Data Sharing’ tab, where you will find the available options for sharing:

So, the locations you see on the AirGradient Map but not on IQAir’s may prefer to share only with AirGradient, or they might just be waiting for IQAir to add them to their map.

Thanks for the answer. Boxes was aleardy tick as my station appear on IQAir since last year.
In my screens, only european stations (but all european stations) were not shown on IQAir map. That’s very strange.

IQAir needs up to one month to get stations on their map. I think they have some manual process involved. This is not something we can influence from our side.

hi, the sync with IQAir worked before with my outdoor device but it doesn’t since the 15 of january. Are you aware of any issue ? Thanks :slight_smile:

I am having this same issue. I contacted IQAir some days ago to ask them to use the corrected values and they told me that AirGradient has agreed to provide them with these corrected values via API, but it may take one month more or less. Let’s hope this is corrected soon, :crossed_fingers:

Yes we are working on this right now.

Hi! Were you able to implement the solution to this issue? Thanks!

My outdoor monitor and some others in Utrecht were last updated in air iq , more then 4 hours ago. Real time my ass :sweat_smile:. It’s their fault. OpenAQ is also up to date.

After submitting the 4 hour delay in the air iq app, they now just removed the outdoor monitor from the map. Sigh. Not really a solution for their shitty update latency.

It’s not on the map, but still in my favorites list in the app. I guess it will appear on the map again in a matter of days.
