Historically, windPRO users have benefitted from easy access to the EMD online-databases – data which have been specifically developed and distributed for renewable energy purposes. With the REST (Representational State Transfer) based API’s in the EMD-API service, it is now possible to connect machine driven workflows, internal tools and services directly to more than 1Pb of high-quality climate data and other services at EMD. This page provides a brief overview on how-to access the EMD online-services through a REST-based API-access based on the OpenAPI-standard.

Authentication
Database-access is via an API-key approach which authenticates against a server-whitelist. Dataset users provide their login credentials (user-name and serial-key) – and the server respondswith a API-key that is then used for the authentication within the data-service API's. The API-key is personal and is never to be shared.
URL for API-Access
Data and services are accessed from the following URL: https://api.emd.dk
