AeroShield is a collaborative NASA Space Apps 2025 project that visualizes Air Quality Index (AQI) metrics in real-time using the OpenWeatherMap Air Pollution API. It empowers global users to monitor air quality, analyze trends, and make informed health decisions all through an elegant and interactive dashboard.
- Live AQI data rendered via Leaflet.js and OpenStreetMap.
- Integrated GeoSearch for address or city lookup.
- Clickable markers displaying AQI, PM2.5, and risk category.
- Historical AQI visualization with Chart.js.
- Fully responsive for desktop and mobile.
- Dynamic health advice based on AQI severity.
- Clear guidance for sensitive groups.
- Real-time AQI intensity map overlay.
- Smooth transitions with local storage memory.
- One-click local AQI detection and mapping.
