Low Carbon Environmental Goods and Services
The Low Carbon Environmental Goods and Services dataset has been widely adopted in the UK at a national, regional and local government level and internationally since 2007. There are nearly 5,000 product and service activities within the wider dataset, drawn from across the economy, which actively enable a shift towards a green economy. These activities reduce carbon emissions and improve the environment through renewable energy, low carbon or environmental goods and services.
Current users of this intelligence includes: Investors, Financial Markets, Technologists, Corporate R&D, Clean Tech Developers, Alternative Energy Markets, Corporate Strategy and Marketing Teams, Investment Banks, Market Research Specialists, Economic Analysts and Corporate Business Advisors.

Geo-services
This dataset was commissioned by the Ordnance Survey in 2014/15 to quantify the contribution that mapping and other Geo-services provide to the UK and global economy. In this dataset Geo-services were defined as services that rely upon geospatial data or images (in part or in total) for their content and delivery and they can occur in any sector of the economy.

The dataset includes 10,500 Geo-services that have been organised by value chain, end-user industries and by activity type. The value chain industries include: Signal Provision Industry, Support Services, End-User Industries, GIS Industry, Distribution Services, Consumers and Satellite Image Industry.

Adaptation Economy & Adaptation and Resilience to Climate Change
Research into the global Adaptation Economy started in 2009/10 on behalf of three UK government departments. The definition was updated in 2013/14 as part of international research commissioned by the Greater London Authority (GLA). The research now identifies over 4,190 products and services spread across 12 sub sectors with discrete Adaptation and Resilience to Climate Change activities.
Who is it for?

Carbon Market Intelligence
Heading
CMI is defined as the critical part of the Carbon Finance Sector responsible for delivering the information required for the effective sale or purchase of carbon based credits or other financial instruments.

This research, the first of its kind to fully explore, define and quantify CMI, uses over 300 sources, to create a comprehensive picture of global CMI activities in terms of value, volume of transactions and growth. Partners in this work included the Carbon Trust, E-Synergy and Carbon Auditors.

Weather & Climate Services
This research, conducted for UK Government and the Space Satellite Industry measures global commercial markets for data, information and software services that help to mitigate or manage risks arising from existing climate conditions or from possible climate change. These services range from proactive forecasting to preventive planning to disaster response activities and can be either short term (weather forecasting), long term (population displacement due to flooding or desertification) or both (planning for renewable energy infrastructure).

The research measures the global Weather and Climate Services market, identifies how market needs are currently being met in terms of data platforms and services and identifies which industries are driving the demand for Weather and Climate Services.
