This index provides metrics and indices to assess the health of planet's biodiversity. It is widely used to inform policy and conservation efforts.

IMPACT World+ is a globally regionalised method for life cycle impact assessment (LCIA), integrating multiple state-of-the-art developments as well as damages on water and carbon areas of concern within a consistent LCIA framework. Most of the regional impact categories have been spatially differentiated and all long-term impact categories have been subdivided into shorter-term damage (the first 100 years after the emission) and long-term damage categories.

Powered by data from Trase Earth, Forest IQ has been developed to support banks and investors assess and manage their exposure to deforestation risk. Forest IQ provides market leading data about corporate performance on deforestation impacts, land conversion, and natural ecosystem and human rights abuses. Trase Earth offers open source data that is free to download.

The Biodiversity Indicators Partnership promotes the development, delivery and use of biodiversity indicators. Its primary role is to delivering indicators to monitor progress toward global and national goals and targets, such as those established under the Convention on Biological Diversity, and the Convention on Migratory Species and Ramsar, among others. The BIP also supports indicators used in IPBES Assessment reports and for reporting progress towards Sustainable Development Goals. Indicators supported by the BIP are also used by national and regional government.

This site provides information about the proposed indicators for the monitoring framework for the Post 2020 GBF.

Developed by UN WCMC and CITES Secretariat, Species + provides a central portal for accessing key information on species of global concern.

Protected Planet is the most up to date and complete source of data on protected areas and other effective are-based conservation measures (OECMs), updated monthly with submissions from governments, non-government organisations, landowners and communities.

Ocean Plus is an initiative that brings together accurate and up-to-date information on ocean biodiversity to support effective decisions that protect global marine life. The database includes three primary datasets: Ocean+ Data viewer, Ocean+ Habitats, and Ocean + Library.

The hub hosts a collection of tools and guidance to help financial institutions harmonise environmental and social impact monitoring for sustainable land use finance.

EORA is a global supply chain database that consists of a multi-region input output table (MIRO) model that provides a time series of high-resolution IO tables with matching environmental and social satellite accounts for 190 countries. EORA has particularly high granularity for Australia, whereas EXIOBASE is ideal for the European context.

The UNEP WCMC is part of the specialist biodiversity assessment arm of the United Nations Environment Program. It is a ‘centre of excellence’, home to resources, tools, data bases, project information and more — A wealth of knowledge designed to inform and support organisations.

ReCiPe is a method for the impact assessment (LCIA) in an LCA. Life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) translates emissions and resource extractions into a limited number of environmental impact scores by means of so-called characterisation factors. 

EXIOBASE is a global, detailed Multi-Regional Environmentally Extended Supply-Use Table (MR-SUT) and Input-Output Table (MR-IOT). It was developed by harmonising and detailing supply-use tables for a large number of countries, estimating emissions and resource extractions by industry.

The CDP Scores page provides access to the latest environmental performance assessments of companies and cities. It features the A Lists, highlighting leaders in environmental transparency and action. Users can view detailed scores and responses to understand entities' environmental strategies and progress.

Forest 500 has been ranking 500 influential companies and financial institutions on the strength and implementation of their commitments on deforestation and human rights. The rankings and data can be integrated into high-level assessments of deforestation risk, be used to compare peers, identify and analyse trends across institutions, and support engagement activities.

Collect Earth is a tool that enables data collection through Google Earth. In conjunction with Google Earth, Bing Maps and Google Earth Engine, users can analyse high and very high-resolution satellite imagery for a wide variety of purposes, including forest inventories, land use change and forestry assessments, monitoring, quantifying deforestation and more.
