Our Story

Climate change is already affecting flood risks, storm trajectories, heatwave intensity, crop productivity, water availability, pests, disease propagation, and rooftop snow loads. To analyze and mitigate these risks, scientists, planners, and vulnerable communities need access to comprehensive data and analysis tools to help make smart, low-regret decisions based on evidence.

Marble will make such climate data analyses cheap, quick, efficient, and reproducible so that they can be used whenever they are needed for planning, decision-making or research.

FAQ

Find answers to common questions about Marble services.

How do I access the nodes?

Navigate to the Nodes page to view the nodes that are available in the network.
Depending on which node you would like to access you can register for an account, go to the signin page, or inspect any of the services that the node provides from here.

What kind of data is available?

The Marble network makes available various types of climate data including earth observation data, climate model projections, and many more. To see which data is hosted at a given node, check out that node's STAC catalog

Are the services free?

Yes! You will not be asked to pay for access to the Marble network or any of its nodes.
