## Data Source

This application uses data from the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS), which provides global atmospheric composition forecasts and analyses.

## CDS API Configuration

For downloading CAMS data, you need to set up CDS API credentials:

### For Hugging Face Spaces (Recommended):
1. Create an account at https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/
2. Go to your user profile and copy your API credentials
3. In your Hugging Face Space settings, add these as **Secrets**:
   - `CDSAPI_URL`: `https://ads.atmosphere.copernicus.eu/api`
   - `CDSAPI_KEY`: Your API key from the CDS website

### For Local Development:
You can create a `.cdsapirc` file in your home directory:
```
url: https://ads.atmosphere.copernicus.eu/api
key: your-api-key-here
```

**Note**: Never commit `.cdsapirc` files to public repositories as they contain sensitive credentials.

You can also upload your own NetCDF files to explore the visualization features without API access.
