Walking and jogging route planning

Air Quality Router

Estimated AQI, route distance, freshness, and daily availability come together so outdoor plans can favor cleaner routes and better hours.

Current app focus

Cleaner-route guidance with target-aware context.

Air Quality Router compares nearby route choices, checks cleaner time windows, and labels recommendation quality without treating estimated AQI as personal exposure measurement.

Target AQI

Personal thresholds without alarmist copy

Good 50, Balanced 75, Flexible 100, and custom 25-150 targets shape route and window recommendations, with caution when sensitive groups may need lower targets.

Route ranking

Plain-language reasons

Route cards pair estimated AQI, distance, halfway time, freshness, and source quality with reasons such as best estimated AQI nearby or similar AQI with a shorter walk.

Cleaner hours

Outdoor windows with follow-through

Availability windows, local notifications, missed reminder catch-ups, and Calendar review keep walking and jogging routines connected to the latest route check.

Data and privacy

Freshness labels make weak signals visible.

OpenAQ remains the primary source for nearby readings. CAMS / Copernicus forecast fallback adds context when recent readings are unavailable, while the Cloudflare AQ Proxy narrows provider access and caches air-quality responses.

Provider status Recent readings, forecast fallback, cached guidance, and weak-signal states stay visible.

No ads or third-party analytics Diagnostic logs remain local unless shared manually during support.

Tier-aware proxy protection Short-lived session tokens and active-place quotas protect costly provider endpoints.

Planning notice. Air Quality Router provides estimated AQI route guidance for awareness and planning. It is not a personal exposure measurement, medical advice, emergency guidance, or a safety guarantee.
