Jana for Policy Makers

Policymakers and public agencies are judged on outcomes—cleaner air, credible NDCs, defensible MRV (measurement, reporting, and verification)—but they are often handed fragmented evidence: national inventories, voluntary corporate disclosures, and local monitoring networks that were never designed to agree with each other. Without independent cross-checks, it is difficult to spot gaps, prioritize enforcement, or explain trade-offs to the public.

Jana addresses that credibility and integration problem directly. Climate TRACE adds satellite-informed, facility-level perspective that does not depend on what emitters choose to report. EDGAR provides consistent historical and gridded context for trends, baselines, and cross-border context. OpenAQ ties the conversation to ground-level air quality—the part of the problem communities experience directly and that links climate forcing to health and SDG-relevant outcomes.

Together through one API, teams can support transparency and synthesis work: comparing self-reported or inventory totals to independent signals, analyzing sectoral and geographic hotspots, and connecting emissions narratives to observed pollution where monitors exist. That is the kind of integrated evidence base governments, climate negotiators, and regional bodies increasingly need—without building a bespoke data consortium for every project.

Looking ahead: Under evaluation when demand warrants: official subnational feeds, hazard / adaptation-relevant layers, and transboundary clarity that sit alongside TRACE, OpenAQ, and EDGAR— Share jurisdiction and policy use cases with info@jana.earth; more information on the roadmap page.
