Understanding the Albion Data Project: API Latency & Freshness
The Albion Online Data Project (AODP) is a community-driven database that collects market pricing data sent from client-side packet sniffers. This data is broadcasted through NATS messaging queues to downstream tools.
Data Freshness & Decay curves
Market data is not permanent. The validity of a price quote decays exponentially over time:
Confidence(t) = e^(-lambda * t)Where `t` is the elapsed time since the packet was sniffed. ScanAlbion filters out stale price quotes and assigns freshness ratings to every deal, preventing you from chasing ghost profits.
