Dear All,

Good evening.

Here is our assessment of air quality during the 4 lockdown periods.
http://urbanemissions.info/blog-pieces/india-airquality-covid19/
City averages through the periods for all the pollutants is downloadable.

If you are looking for raw monitoring data, main site is this
https://app.cpcbccr.com/ccr/#/caaqm-dashboard-all/caaqm-landing

Use the advanced search option to download the data by city and station.
This is a cumbersome process and there are some limitations on the number
of days you can request in a single search, depending on the time step you
choose (1hr or 2hr averages can be longer periods as compared to 15 mins
average). Best is 15 mins, which allows for cleaning the data; otherwise if
you ask for a day average, the program will give you a value averaging
everything it has, which includes negative numbers and some unexplainable
numbers like 999's.

This is Air Quality (AQ) data and NOT Air Quality Index (AQI)

Alternatively, you can access the official data at Openaq.org, which stores
last 90 days of data to access via API

One way is to search by city name
https://api.openaq.org/v1/measurements?city=Ahmedabad&parameter=pm25&date_from=2020-04-01&date_to=2020-04-10&format=csv
Ahmedabad has only one site, as of 2020.
The Second way is to search by radius method (in km), which will give
stations in and around Ahmedabad, including Gandhi Nagar.
https://api.openaq.org/v1/measurements?coordinates=23,72.6&radius=30000&date_from=2020-04-01&date_to=2020-04-10&parameter=pm25&format=csv

All the openaq.org data (up until the last hour) is all stored on aws s3
buckets
https://openaq-fetches.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html (click on real time, to
access the global csv files)
Here is an instructional post -

There is also an instructional video (with JS language), if you want to dig
deeper - https://youtu.be/Tiot877orkU

With best wishes,
Sarath
