Intelligence begins here
 

Easily access, process and analyze environmental data and use it strategically with a wide-ranging set of APIs offered the IBM® Environmental Intelligence. 

Simplify data preparation and integration and speed up analysis

Ready-to-use APIs integrate geospatial and GHG emissions data and weather analytics without the need for cleaning, normalization or transformation.

Extract actionable insights from complex data

IBM’s APIs and Python SDK integrate seamlessly into workflows for analyzing complex, diverse data sets with machine learning and AI-driven insights.

Work in different environments without platform-specific constraints

Broad compatibility with a range of programming languages and tools ensures that teams can integrate APIs into their existing tech stacks and workflows.

Access essential information in a centralized developer’s console

Your API key resides in the console for convenient access to the credentials you need to authenticate and start working more quickly with the APIs.

Scale for growing data needs

High-resolution imagery, global weather data and more are available on demand, and adapt to varying levels of complexity and size―everything from small-scale regional analyses to extensive global studies without compromising performance or accuracy. This scalability lets you expand applications and analyses as needed.

Find revelations between layers

Geospatial APIs bring environmental data to life as high-resolution imagery and other valuable data insights. Complex queries reveal key relationships between layers that have been normalized and organized for analysis and visualization so you can gain insights efficiently and act quickly.

Analyze a greater footprint

Access the greenhouse gas emissions APIs and analyze both direct and indirect GHG emissions, in your company and in the value chain. Calculate Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions and organize in keeping with the latest GHG protocols.

Extrapolate, correlate, predict

Use current, historical and forecast weather data to extract relationships in weather history, correlate among assets and help predict future business needs and outcomes. Historical APIs combine nearly a decade of observations from multiple data sources, with customizable payloads for real-time weather insights.
