Going Beyond The Map: Introducing Environment APIs tl;dr: Google Maps Platform has introduced a new suite of Environment APIs, designed to help developers create tools that encourage sustainable practices and adapt to new environmental realities. The suite includes three APIs: Solar, Air Quality, and Pollen. The Solar API aims to accelerate solar adoption by providing precise data and insights on solar viability and design. The Air Quality API offers reliable air quality data, visualization via heatmaps, and in-depth pollutant details. The Pollen API provides real-time pollen information for common allergens worldwide, offering localized pollen count data, heatmap visualizations, and actionable tips for allergy sufferers.
