EarthOptics

EarthOptics is a soil data measurement and mapping company headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It combines proprietary in-field proximal sensing hardware, robotics, genomics and laboratory testing with machine learning models to produce high-resolution sub-field maps of soil compaction, fertility and nutrients, soil biology, moisture and soil organic carbon from far fewer physical samples than conventional soil testing. The company sells measurement and analytics, agronomic planning (crop planning, nutrient management, sub-field scripting) and carbon planning (carbon credit planning, sustainability-as-a-service, 45Z clean-fuel documentation) to farmers, agronomists and consultants, ranchers and landowners, seed suppliers, ag retail, carbon project developers and corporate sustainability teams. Results are delivered through the 360 PRO customer dashboard at app.earthoptics.com and through a dealer network. EarthOptics merged with soil-biology company Pattern Ag and reports having mapped more than five million acres. It operates a customer-facing web application backed by a private REST API, but publishes no public developer program, API documentation or SDKs.

EarthOptics publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Agriculture, AgTech, Soil, and Soil Data.

EarthOptics’ developer surface includes authentication, engineering blog, support, and 21 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/earth-optics: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?

  notes: 'Contract discovery HIT a gated machine-readable contract: api.earthoptics.com runs Django REST Framework with a
    drf-spectacular OpenAPI schema at /api/schema/ and Swagger UI at /api/docs/, both HTTP 401 behind Bearer JWT (WWW-Authenticate:
    Bearer realm="api"). No spec captured — it is not publicly retrievable. No public developer program exists. No agent card
    (app.earthoptics.com 200s on every path — SPA catch-all false positive, rejected). security.txt is Craft CMS boilerplate
    with a placeholder contact and four 404 URLs, so no Security pointer was emitted.'
