iNaturalist API

iNaturalist as an API — the world's largest citizen-science nature platform, returned as clean JSON, no key. Search hundreds of millions of wildlife observations by species name, place or quality grade and get each one with its photos, identified species, location, date and observer. Open a single observation, search taxa (species) and open a taxon for its common name, rank, full ancestry, photos, Wikipedia link, conservation status and observation count. Discover the most-observed species in any place (by place id or latitude/longitude), autocomplete places, and rank the top observers. Live data straight from iNaturalist. Distinct from taxonomic registries: this is real community observations with photos and locations — ideal for nature, birding and species-identification apps, biodiversity dashboards and education. 7 data endpoints. Authenticated with an x-oanor-key; fair-use rate limits per plan.

National Parks API

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.

Biodiversity API

Match scientific or common species names to the GBIF taxonomic backbone (kingdom to species), search the global species catalogue, fetch full taxon records with vernacular names, and retrieve geo-located occurrence observations. Ideal for nature, education, research, conservation and citizen-science apps.
