I completely agree with this suggestion. The current AQI approach works well for users familiar with the US EPA system, but it creates unnecessary confusion in regions where different standards are used. During wildfire season in Canada, raw PM2.5 values and 24-hour averages are often much more meaningful than a single index number. Having a toggle between raw concentrations, hourly readings and rolling averages would make the layer much more useful for both professionals and regular users. Showing all available pollutants in the station card would also improve transparency, especially when the displayed index is driven by something other than the selected pollutant. Localized indexes would be a great addition too. These changes would make the air quality layer more globally relevant.
