API and source usage dashboard
This page shows which This Air Quality Project sources are active, which credentials are present, and which obvious next collectors should be wired in next. It deliberately exposes status only, not secret names or values.

Scientific evidence and software assurance are different
Scientific evidence
Measurements, station and regional coverage, descriptive calculations, source records and stated limitations are the evidence available for review.
Engineering assurance
Automated checks confirm that the pipeline followed its declared rules. They do not constitute peer review, accreditation, regulatory approval or institutional endorsement.
