Getting Started ​

This guide will help you get started with the ICP-Forest data taken in Brandenburg Germany. The data is collected by the Landesbetrieb Forst Brandenburg and is part of the ICP-Forest network. The data is collected in the framework of the Level I and Level II monitoring programs. The Level I program is a systematic network of permanent observation plots, while the Level II program is a network of intensive monitoring plots.

The base URL for the API is http://116.203.31.116:8000/rest/v1/. All requests should start with this URL.

Authentication ​

The API requires an API key to be passed in the header of each request. The API key is a JSON Web Token (JWT) and is used to authenticate the user. The API key is passed in the apikey header.
