# Welcome to ClimateDB

{% hint style="info" %}
**ClimateDB is a powerful tool for climate research.** ClimateDB provides SQL-access to our world's climate data. We have sourced, decoded, cleaned, and structured climate data from high-quality, science-backed sources...so you don't have.

Focus on modeling our world, developing new insights, and finding climate solutions...not searching for datasets and cleaning up data.
