#conservation

The conservation status of assessed species from the IUCN Red List as an API — the reference a wildlife, conservation, education or research application needs. For each of 150,000+ assessed species the API returns its scientific name, common name, taxonomy (kingdom, class, family), the IUCN Red List category (CR critically endangered, EN endangered, VU vulnerable, NT near threatened, LC least concern, DD data deficient, EW extinct in the wild, EX extinct) and the IUCN taxon id. Look a species up by scientific name, search by scientific or common name, list every species in a Red List category (e.g. all critically endangered) or in a taxonomic class (e.g. all assessed mammals), and read a full category breakdown. Distinct from worms-api (the marine-species taxonomy register) — this is the conservation-status reference. Served from memory — always fast.

National parks around the world as an API — 2,400+ national parks from 160+ countries, from Wikidata, each with its country, exact coordinates, the year it was established and its official website. Search and filter parks by name, country and establishment-year range, or find every national park near any coordinate by great-circle distance (great for "national parks near me" and trip planning). From Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon to Kruger, Banff, Torres del Paine and Kakadu, it is ideal for travel, tourism, maps, outdoor, education and nature apps. Open data from Wikidata.
