Climate and Hazard Mitigation Planning (CHaMP) Tool

This tool supports the development of climate-informed Infrastructure and Hazard Mitigation Plans required by FEMA. The tool provides users with community- and region-specific historical and projected climate and hazard information for the following themes: Coastal Hazards, Extreme Rainfall/Flooding, Fog, Great Lakes Hazards, Severe Weather, Tropical Storms/Hurricanes, Extreme Heat, Wildfire, and Winter Weather.

CHaMP can also assist planners in integrating climate information into their existing and future planning efforts. The tool can help planners communicate potential vulnerabilities to their residents and to state and federal authorities who are responsible for allocating resources for hazard mitigation activities.
