The United Nations Development Programme has defined a framework of Sustainable Development Goals. The goals typically include one or more development indicators that may be possible to quantify and track. Research the SDGs/indicators to determine which of them can be quantified. See if any other open-source projects/libraries have similar ambitions of quantifying sustainability data, and in particular the UN SDGs.
