About This Page

This page lists where the figures on this website come from, the licence or terms each publisher’s figures are used under, and the notices publishers ask us to show.

Each panel names its sources once, at its foot. Its price rows link to the publisher’s page. The price ticker’s tiles link to the publisher’s page and name the publisher in the tooltip. Publishers may revise their figures after we show them. The publisher’s own site has the current version.

Figures We Show

These publishers’ figures appear on the site, each linked to its publisher. Under each publisher: the figures, their delay, the licence or terms, and the attribution line.

Alberta CO2 Map

The Alberta CO2 Map sets NASA satellite observations beside Carbon Assessors’ own modelled values.

Satellite CO2 observations: NASA OCO-2 and OCO-3, distributed by NASA GES DISC. These data were produced by the OCO-2 and OCO-3 projects at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, and obtained from the OCO-2 and OCO-3 data archives maintained at the NASA Goddard Earth Science Data and Information Services Center. Modelled CO2 values are Carbon Assessors' own and are not endorsed by NASA.

Licence or terms: NASA Earth Science Data Use Guidance (CC0). Data: OCO-2 Data Center.

Compliance Calendar

Dates compiled by Carbon Assessors from the regulations and agency pages linked for each entry. Check the official source before relying on a date.

Each entry in the calendar links to the regulation or agency page its date comes from.

Our Own Data

Carbon Assessors’ own assessments, the TIER index and our publications are ours, as are the modelled values on the Alberta CO2 Map. They are not third-party data, and none of the licences above covers them. The Terms of Use say how you may use them, including the limits on automated access.
