What makes it different

No other tool does all of this.

🌍
Photorealistic Satellite Globe
The only sea level rise simulator on a 3D satellite globe. Watch blue flood water spread across real terrain — not a flat map.
📊
IPCC AR6 — All Five Scenarios
Every SSP scenario from the 2021 Sixth Assessment Report, including high-end uncertainty bounds and ice sheet collapse pathways.
🌀
Localised Storm Surge
Click anywhere on any coastline to place a surge origin. Cat 1–5 presets with NOAA-parameterized reach. Combined with sea level rise in real time.
🔥
Live NASA Fire Data
Active fire detections updated every 24 hours from NASA FIRMS VIIRS. High-confidence fires scaled by radiative power for Pro users.
🧊
Ice Sheet Collapse Scenarios
Greenland (+7 m), West Antarctica (+3.3 m), and full theoretical melt (+70 m). See what millennia of inaction locks in.
🛰️
Live NASA Sea Ice Stats
Arctic and Antarctic sea ice extent updated weekly from NSIDC. Current anomaly vs 1981–2010 baseline and long-term trend since 1979.
✈️
Infrastructure at Risk
42,814 airports, 1,247 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and 421 nuclear plants — all mapped with real elevation data.
🌡️
Five-Metric Climate Risk
Click anywhere on Earth for drought risk, extreme heat days, wildfire risk, storm track probability, and flood frequency — with projections to 2100.

Indigenous communities + climate justice
Built with Indigenous communities in mind.
Many of the world's most climate-vulnerable communities are Indigenous — from First Nations reserves on Canada's coasts to Pacific Island nations facing submersion. Climate Impact Map is designed to be a tool for these communities: accessible, data-rich, and curriculum-ready. A portion of Classroom tier revenue is donated to Indigenous-led climate adaptation initiatives in Canada. Every lesson plan in the Classroom edition includes an Indigenous knowledge connection.
Transparency

Every dataset, cited.

No proprietary black boxes. Every data source is peer-reviewed, government-published, or open-access.

Pricing

Free to explore.
Pro to understand.

The free tier gives you a genuine tool. Pro unlocks the full scientific picture. Classroom gives your students the same tools journalists and researchers use.
