Air Pollution Data
Dear Hello sarkaar,
hello! I'm a Computing student and I'm doing my final year project in air prediction system. I need the data of air pollution from here (http://pollution.gov.np/#/stations/3?_k=...) so that I could create a forecasting system. I visited the Department of Environment Air Quality Monitoring department and dropped a letter and have chat with officers. I explained in every possible way how I could use the public data so I could predict the emission on future. My sole purpose is to raise awareness among the general people. They would just say I cannot have a data or their policy isn't strong enough to let the students or anyone give access to API or even past data in an unprofessional way. Later, they would agree to me on a month data limiting with one place with wouldn't help on my project. Isn't your sole purpose of the department to raise awareness? Why is this department hiding the data? They would convince me replying the system isn't build or polished. I just want to ask a question why is the same department allowing the API to the foreign organization here (https://aqicn.org/map/nepal/#@g/27.4233/...) and cannot trust their own citizen? I hope you will help me and clear my doubts. thanks
Yours faithfully,
Vijay Pathak
