AMEE API / Data API

Overview

The AMEE Data API stores all the standard data and algorithms that AMEE contains. It consists of a tree of Data Categories, each of which contain a set of related Data Items. Each Data Item represents a form of energy usage and its associated information. For instance, a Data Item may represent electricity for a particular country, or a particular type of car. Calculations are performed by creating Profile Items which can be considered to be "instances" of Data Items (see the Profile API for more details).
