Several updates to haze.net.my (Malaysia Air Pollution Index):
- Feeds now contain the previous 7 collected data
- Feeds are now available for all Areas. So you can keep track of the past weeks air pollution for your Area. Want to know how Kuala Lumpur is doing?
- Download indices as a Google Earth (kml) file
- Replaced the Lowest and Highest linechart for Areas into Morning and Evening
- Statistics about the amount of data collected, duration, and missing
- Tables are now sortable
To do:
- Improve Fullscreen Interface
- Add heatmaps
- Add deltas, to see difference from the past week. May use Sparklines
- Include a nice/easy interface to change dates rapidly, via a JavaScript calendar
- Pimp up the About page
More suggestions, comments, critique?


The feed entries’ title for Area is a bit long, and Firefox Live Bookmark truncates the title:
“API for 2007-07-27 - avg:64 morning:65 eve…”
Suggestion (a shorter title?):
“2007-07-27 avg:64 am:65 pm:63″

How about using some transparent sprites instead of the fugly square boxes? The amount of transparency and colour should represent the amount of haze/visibility/air quality.
