Tools

A free read-only API

Cached JSON over the same records the pages render, with the sources attached. Use it rather than scraping the HTML.

Endpoints

Climate normals

GET /api/v1/climate/{kind}/{slug} # example GET /api/v1/climate/city/sarande

Twelve months of normals computed from ERA5 reanalysis over 1994–2023, with the period and source stated in the payload.

Terms

  • No key, no rate limit beyond ordinary fair use. Please identify your client in the User-Agent header.
  • Editorial text and the entity graph: attribute The Albania Atlas and link back.
  • Photographs: the API returns each image's creator, licence and source file page. Reuse them under their own licences from the source, not from here.
  • Data series remain subject to their producers' terms — see data sources.
  • Values are cached and may lag the producer's latest release. Every payload carries the observation period so you can tell.
