Look up current air quality conditions for a location via Google Maps on Tempo MPP.
What it does
This endpoint wraps the Google Maps Air Quality API's currentConditions:lookup method, served through the Tempo MPP (Micropayment Protocol) gateway at googlemaps.mpp.tempo.xyz. It is intended to return real-time air quality data — including AQI indexes, pollutant concentrations, and health recommendations — for a given geographic location.
The underlying Google Maps Air Quality API typically accepts a POST request with a latitude/longitude pair and returns current condition data such as the Air Quality Index (AQI) from multiple index systems (e.g., US EPA, CAQI), dominant pollutant information, and associated health guidance. The Tempo MPP layer adds a pay-per-call settlement mechanism, likely using pathUSD on the Tempo L2 network.
However, during probing the endpoint returned 404 on both HEAD and GET requests, and all crawled pages on the origin domain also returned "Not Found." This may indicate the endpoint only responds to POST requests (consistent with the Google Maps Air Quality API design, which uses POST for lookups), or it may indicate the service is currently offline or misconfigured. No pricing information, documentation, or OpenAPI schema was discoverable. Users should verify availability by sending a properly formed POST request before relying on this endpoint.
Capabilities
Use cases
- —Retrieve real-time air quality index and pollutant levels for a specific lat/lng coordinate
- —Power health-advisory features in fitness or outdoor-activity apps
- —Feed environmental monitoring dashboards with current pollution data
- —Enrich location-based services with air quality context
Fit
Best for
- —Agents needing on-demand air quality data without a Google Maps API key
- —Pay-per-call air quality lookups settled via crypto micropayments
- —Integrating AQI data into automated workflows or chatbots
Not for
- —Historical air quality trend analysis (this is current conditions only)
- —Bulk or high-volume batch queries where a direct Google API key would be cheaper
- —Use cases requiring guaranteed uptime — endpoint liveness is currently unconfirmed
Quick start
curl -X POST https://googlemaps.mpp.tempo.xyz/airquality/v1/currentConditions:lookup \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"location":{"latitude":37.7749,"longitude":-122.4194}}'Example
Request
{
"location": {
"latitude": 37.7749,
"longitude": -122.4194
}
}Endpoint
Quality
The endpoint returned 404 on HEAD and GET probes, and the entire origin domain returns Not Found on all crawled paths. No schema, pricing, documentation, or MPP 402 challenge was captured. The listing is largely inferred from the endpoint path and knowledge of the Google Maps Air Quality API. Liveness is unconfirmed.
Warnings
- —Endpoint returned 404 on HEAD and GET — may only accept POST, or may be offline/misconfigured
- —No MPP 402 payment challenge was captured; pricing and settlement details are unknown
- —All pages on the origin domain (root, /docs, /api, /pricing, /README) return Not Found
- —No OpenAPI schema or documentation is available from the provider
- —Example response is not available — response format is inferred from Google Maps Air Quality API conventions
