I've been looking for a number of sources of climate data for the last little while and after talking to a paleoclimatologist I was provided a number of resources that I hope to work with in the near future:

NASA is a great resource, so check out their Data Portal
If anyone has any contributions to make please do, it would be great to see if there's any more data I can get my hands on

I have been researching some groups and organisations that could possibly benefit from projects created from these APIs
| Website | Description | Contact |
|---|---|---|
| Pollinators | Monitoring the activity of pollintators in Ireland | pollinators@biodiversityireland.ie |
| Irish Gov Data | An array of apis with ecological data and surveys | Multiple points of contact |
- Create web portal and app that allows people to browse the Irish government ecological data.
- Next provide a platform to allow users to submit their own sightings, with species, name, picture & location with coordinates.
- These submissions will be reviewed by a researcher before they are offically recorded.
- Combine weather forcasts with the season to alert to the likelyhood of seeing a certain species in a certain area.
