Pollen count shows the number of pollen grains that are present in the air for a standard volume.

The different types of pollen allergy are classified based on the severity of the allergy and the type of pollen to cause an allergy. According to allergy data, tree, grass and weed allergies are three primary types.

Pollen count levels range from 0 to 50,000 grains depending on the type of pollen. Safest pollen counts are when the pollen index is low. The higher the pollen index, more is the number of pollen count level.

API key can be copied and inserted in the tab on the Ambee dashboard to make pollen API calls. Pollen app give you real-time pollen count without an API  key.

Pollen index is directly correlated to pollen count, which is the measurement of the number of grains of pollen in a cubic meter of air. Low pollen index means the number of pollen count in the air is low and high pollen index means the number of pollen count is high. High pollen index can lead to increased rates of allergic reaction for those with allergic disorders.

There are several ways to verify pollen forecasts:

One way is to compare the forecast to actual pollen counts. Another way to verify pollen forecasts is to compare them to other sources of information about pollen levels. For example, you could compare the forecast to reports from other pollen monitoring stations in the same region.

Overall, the best way to verify pollen and allergy forecasts is to use a combination of both of these methods to get an accurate result. At Ambee, we additionally verify pollen forecast using proprietary AI and ML models to ensure maximum accuracy.
