## 💡 Core Features

**euroaq** imports air quality data from the EEA's Air Quality Downloads service API.

- **Access AQ station metadata** from data flow D with `import_eea_stations()`.

- **Call the API directly** with a collection of convenient R wrappers for each API endpoint.

ℹ️ *This package is compatible with version `0.8` of the AQ Downloads service, released on `2025-03-31`. If a newer version is released, please [raise an issue](https://github.com/openair-project/euroaq/issues) if there isn't already one.*
