At Solargis, our API data services are provided as integral components of the **Monitor**, **Forecast**, **Prospect**, and **Evaluate** solutions, delivering high-quality solar and meteorological data tailored for a wide range of scenarios. Additionally, we provide API access to the Solargis **PV components catalog**, enabling you to use highly detailed manufacturer components in your designs and applications. These APIs enable seamless integration for use cases such as feasibility analysis, energy yield estimation, ongoing monitoring, performance forecasting, and PV system design, supporting professional applications throughout the entire solar project lifecycle. Solargis data services provide flexible data access through **synchronous and asynchronous APIs** and **scheduled push delivery to SFTP**, in **different formats** (XML, JSON, CSV) and a range of **temporal resolutions** (from minutes to years), catering to the needs of developers, analysts, consultants, and system integrators. Offered in **different subscription tiers**, these services deliver flexibility in product selection to best match specific project or integration requirements. ## Available Solargis API data services Below is a structured table presenting the Solargis API data services grouped by their related product, their intended usage, and direct links to further resources.
