API Reference

Note

For the entrypoint to each model, see InVEST Model Entry Points. The InVEST graphic user interface interacts with the models through these entrypoints. If you want to use the models as they are, such as to automate runs, you should only access the entrypoint function of each model.

If however you want to modify a model, or only use certain components, see below for the complete API reference.
