Licensed data
Planned products, priced by quote. Where we have no coverage, the product says so. Open datasets, free under an open license, are listed separately. How customer access works.
Paid products are free to every account through December 31, 2026 (midnight US Eastern). From January 1, 2027, paid plans apply only to accounts that choose one, and the free API key and free tier continue. Storm reports for storms already in the published tables, and the extras listed for those tables, are free with a free account. Licensed products are by quote. Create a free account · Plans from 2027

What a delivery looks like
-
Site screening evidence
For a boundary you supply, the supported federal environmental datasets that touch it: wetlands, floodplains, streams, habitat, contaminated sites, air-quality areas, historic places, and prior federal reviews, each with its source, version, and date.
For Environmental consultants, engineering firms, developers, and GIS teams who screen many sites and want the evidence inside their own tools.
Sample: a boundary we drew across the Ashley River, South Carolina, checked against seven federal layers on 26 September 2026.
-
Federal review milestone feed
Milestones, notices, and schedule slippage for federal environmental reviews in the public systems we track, filtered by region, state, agency, or sector.
For Developers, lenders, law firms, and public agencies whose schedules depend on a federal review.
Sample: the national issue of 26 September 2026, every project on the Federal Permitting Dashboard.
-
Portfolio monitoring
Your saved boundaries checked against every source update, with a before-and-after for each change and the source version on both sides.
For Owners and operators of many sites: utilities, energy portfolios, infrastructure funds, and the firms that serve them.
Illustration: a real portfolio, every solar facility of 100 MW or more in four states, from the USGS database.
-
Water observation histories
One consistent history per eligible lake or reservoir: surface extent, plus level, storage and flow where a gauge publishes them, with units reconciled and a quality flag on every value.
For Water managers, irrigation districts, utilities, and researchers who track many water bodies across several agencies' records.
Illustration: Great Salt Lake elevation from USGS gauges, the public record the open dataset is checked against.

What every product includes
-
A A small block of metadata attached to every response: which source, which version of it, when it took effect, and when we first saw it. on every response
Source, source version, effective date, and first-seen date on each value, so two people looking at the same result a month apart can tell whether the world changed or the record did.
-
Coverage stated, gaps flagged
A result distinguishes "nothing intersects" from "no coverage here" from "not evaluated." A missing layer is reported as missing.
-
Source records for each finding
We report what a public record says and where it lives. We do not make regulatory determinations, legal judgments, or predictions about outcomes.
-
Versioned, with a changelog
Schema and method carry a version. Changes are listed, and earlier versions remain readable for the life of your agreement.
-
Source attribution
Inputs are public government records and open satellite programs unless your agreement says otherwise. Any attribution a source requires travels with the data.
-
A sample before a contract
Every product starts with a real output on a boundary, agency, or site list you pick, so you judge the data before you pay for it.
How licensing works
- License
- A written data license per product and customer. It states permitted use (internal, client deliverables, redistribution, derived products), the number of users or sites, the term, and what happens to the data when the term ends. These products are not covered by the open license on our free datasets.
- Pricing
- Priced by coverage, update frequency, permitted use, and delivery method. Site screening, the milestone feed, and portfolio monitoring start with a quote. The weekly lake watch is planned. Paid plans start January 1, 2027, on Plans and prices. The customer app is open. See how it fits with services.
- Delivery
- Through a separate customer portal with its own sign-in, keys, and usage records. Keys are scoped to your organization and product and can be revoked or rotated at any time.
- Sources and rights
- We keep a register of every input: its license, its access terms, and what we may deliver downstream. A source that does not permit redistribution is used only to compute values we are allowed to deliver, and the register says so.
- Your data
- Boundaries, site lists, and results you send us stay yours, are used only to deliver your product, and are deleted at the end of the term on request.
- Ask
- To get started or request a quote, tell us the product, the area, and how you will use the data. To sign in, use the customer portal.
