The luftdaten integration will query the open data API of luftdaten.info to monitor air quality and other weather data from a specific (self build) sensor station.

Setup

• To get the ID of a particle sensor you need to select it on the Feinstaub map and find it in the sidebar (Column "Sensor ID").
• To get the ID of a temperature/humidity sensor you need to find it on the map hosted on Madavi.

Configuration via the frontend

Menu: Configuration -> Integrations

Configure the integration:

• Enter the Sensor ID
• Choose if you want to show the sensor's location on the map.

Manual Configuration

To enable this sensor, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
luftdaten:

{% configuration %} sensor_id: description: The ID of the sensor. required: true type: string show_on_map: description: Option to show the position of the sensor on the map. required: optional default: false type: boolean scan_interval: description: the frequency (in seconds) between data updates. required: false type: integer default: 1800 sensors: description: The sensor-related configuration options. required: false type: map keys: monitored_conditions: description: A list of conditions you want to monitor. required: true type: list keys: P1: description: Show the particle sensors (particles 10 microns and below). P2: description: Show the particle sensors (particles 2.5 microns and below). temperature: description: Display the temperature from the sensor. humidity: description: Display the humidity from the sensor. pressure: description: Display the pressure from the sensor. {% endconfiguration %}

If you set show_on_map to true then the location attributes are named latitude and longitude. The default name of the location attributes is lat and long to avoid showing them on the map.

Not all sensors provide all conditions. Also, it's possible that the sensor values are not available all the time. To check what a sensor is publishing use curl:

$ curl https://api.luftdaten.info/v1/sensor/[sensorid]/

Full example

This example would use the sensor with the ID 155, show it on the map and would monitor temperature and humidity.

# Example configuration.yaml entry
luftdaten:
  sensor_id: 155
  show_on_map: true
  sensors:
    monitored_conditions:
      - temperature
      - humidity

Sensor

The luftdaten sensor platform will query the open data API of luftdaten.info to monitor air quality and other weather data from a specific (self build) sensor station.

You must have the luftdaten integration (from above) configured to use this platform. After configuring that component, sensors will automatically appear.
