Examples
Here's a single example of output provided by the LOOC-B API. It's made using the monitoring mode for a region in Victoria.
The example region (outlined in red below) is an Emissions Reduction Fund project in Victoria. The method used by the project is "Reforestation by Environmental or Mallee Plantings - FullCAM." The project has established permanent plantings of a mix of native tree species on land that was predominantly used for agricultural purposes for at least five years prior to project commencement. The tree species are native to the local area. The project commenced on 27/03/2015.
Summary of habitat condition and tree height since 2012. Numbers represent averages over the region and time of interest.

The figure below is returned from an API request as an html string. It shows the (spatial) mean habitat condition at each year in the time range assessed (2012 - 2020), along with the fifth and ninety-fifth percentile values. For this example, the project was contracted in 2015, and plantings were likely undertaken some time thereafter. We expect that the increase in condition starting from 2015 can be attributed to the greater tree cover following plantings.
The raw summary data are also output as JSON as part of the API repsonse which could then be plotted or used in anyway you like. Example data (formatted as a table) are shown below:| year | mean | fifth percentile | ninety fifth percentile |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2012 | 0.368535 | 0.129314 | 0.853739 |

| 2016 | 0.288167 | 0.124194 | 0.812264 |
| 2017 | 0.304379 | 0.125488 | 0.858417 |
| 2018 | 0.323662 | 0.130241 | 0.912944 |

A series of encoded map images are also returned as part of the response object. These represent habitat condition across the region of interest, with a single map image per year of the time range requested. In the map inset below, different years can be toggled on or off via the layers icon in the top right. The layers are displayed in order of date, so 2020 is visible by default. To view earlier years, deselct the more recent years.
