  title: Verdant Climate Data API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Versioned climate data with preserved meaning. Discover → inspect → resolve
    → query. Small published-data queries return values directly, with explicit
    units, spatial support, missingness and provenance. Reading published data
    requires no credentials. Missing coverage is acquired from the source on
    request through /api/v1/data/requests, paid per acquisition with MPP.
    Consult capabilities before planning a workflow.
