(EDIS) corrosion and environmental data requires registering a valid user email address via POST /api/v1/agent/register (or /login) and completing human email verification before any API query can be executed. Attempting to bypass, spoof, automate around, or circumvent our registration, email verification, or rate-limiting controls is a direct violation of the EDIS Terms of Service and Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA). (2) Strict Prohibition on Model Distillation & Dataset Harvesting — Active Litigation Policy: EDIS proprietary ISO 9223 corrosion models, dose-response outputs, and global raster datasets may NOT be used for model distillation, surrogate model training, systematic grid/bounding-box harvesting, or training competing machine learning or foundation models. Engineering Director, Inc. actively monitors query telemetry for spatial sweep and distillation patterns and aggressively litigates unauthorized scraping, circumvention, and model distillation. ## 1.

Surface Pressure (SP) – Mean Surface Atmospheric Pressure

Global | ~1 km Resolution | 2020–2024

Short Description

This dataset represents the spatial distribution of mean surface atmospheric pressure (SP), which influences air density and atmospheric conditions affecting solar radiation transmission.

Technical Specification

The dataset is derived from ERA5 surface pressure (SP) fields and represents mean surface atmospheric pressure for the period 2020–2024.

ERA5 hourly pressure values were aggregated across the 2020–2024 period to produce a multi-year climatological mean.

This dataset is developed by AtmosphericIQ LLC and processed for distribution and deployment by Engineering Director, Inc.

Key Characteristics

Spatial Characteristics

Role in SSI™ Model

Surface pressure (SP) is one of several atmospheric variables incorporated into the Solar Suitability Index (SSI™) model developed by AtmosphericIQ LLC.

As a determinant of air density and atmospheric mass, surface pressure influences radiative transfer, scattering processes, and environmental conditions, contributing to the overall SSI™ suitability scoring framework.

This dataset is provided as a supporting climatic input layer and does not independently represent solar suitability.

Applications

Data Source

Derived from Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) ERA5 reanalysis data, with processing including temporal aggregation (2020–2024), spatial resampling to ~1 km resolution, and web-compatible clipping.

Related SSI™ Dataset

This dataset is a supporting climatic input to the Solar Suitability Index (SSI™), a global multi-parameter model developed by AtmosphericIQ LLC.
