Details
The function retrieves information from the EEAaq
GitHub folder one of the available metadata.
Since the end of 2024, the data EEA air quality retrieving dataflow is undergoing a major re-organization. In particular, since January 2025, raw data are accessible only through an online platform/dashboard.
While EEAaq
is build to explicitly deal with the automatic and constantly-updated system for raw data, the same process is not always possible for the metadata.
Indeed, most of the metadata information are updated and require relevant pre-processing (i.e., data manipulation and cleaning) steps to make them consistent with the main database on pollutants concentrations.
For this reasons, all the metadata files are periodically pre-processed and updated (on GitHub) by the package maintainers. For issues with the data or code, please contact the development team at pmaranzano.ricercastatistica@gmail.com
Value
a dataframe
