Steps

  1. POST https://openet-api.org/geodatabase/metadata/ids with a geometry array of [lon,lat,lon,lat,...] polygon vertices (or an asset_id) to get every OpenET field id whose boundary intersects the polygon; the response is delivered as a compressed .zip.
  2. As of December 2025, field ids are 11-digit numeric codes; pass version: 2.0 only if you need the older FIPS-prefixed id format for legacy compatibility.
  3. POST https://openet-api.org/geodatabase/metadata/properties with those field_ids to get each field's area (hectares), USDA CDL crop-type code by year, and last-modified date.
  4. POST https://openet-api.org/geodatabase/timeseries with date_range, interval ("monthly"), field_ids, models (e.g. ["ensemble"]), variables (e.g. ["et","eto","etof"]), and file_format ("json" for large field lists, since csv isn't practical at scale) to get precomputed monthly series per field.
  5. POST https://openet-api.org/geodatabase/metadata/boundaries with field_ids if you need back RFC 7946 GeoJSON geometries to render or re-verify the field boundaries.
