Environmental Resilience Tools Wizard

This online tool was created to help state and local emergency managers, environmental or health agencies, and anyone who may not be familiar with EPA resources that help build community resilience to disasters.

Hawai'i Coastal Erosion Website

This website provides the public and government partners with shoreline change data—such as maps, photos, and plots—to assist in coastal zone decision making.

Heat Watch Campaigns

Over the past five years, the NOAA Office of Education, NOAA Climate Program Office, and the National Integrated Heat Health Information System have funded CAPA Heat Watch to support 40+ communities across the United States in mapping their urban heat islands.

IPCC AR6 Sea Level Projection Tool

Visualize and download the sea level projection data from the IPCC 6th Assessment Report (AR6).

OceanReports

Draw a custom area anywhere in U.S. waters or pick from a predefined list of locations to get instant custom reports that include descriptive infographics and supporting data for offshore planning, permitting, environmental review, and public relations.

Pacific Island Sea Level Forecasts

This experimental product provides an outlook of monthly sea level anomalies for the next one to two seasons. We combine sea level forecasts with astronomical tide predictions to provide more accurate predictions of coastal water level compared to tide predictions alone.

POWER Project Services Platform

NASA's Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) project offers user communities data for solar and wind powered renewable energy systems, estimated building energy efficiency, and agroclimatology for crop models.

Rainfall Atlas of Hawaiʻi

This site offers interactive and downloadable maps showing detailed values and spatial patterns of monthly and annual rainfall for the major Hawaiian Islands.

U.S. Drought Monitor

Access maps, data, and other information about current and past drought conditions across the United States.

Water Resources Dashboard

Water resource managers and urban planners use this dashboard for convenient access to maps and data that help them monitor the potential for extreme precipitation and drought in their regions.

Web Soil Survey

Zoom in on a map of the United States and outline an area of interest to access a soil map and descriptions of soils for that location. Access additional information to determine the suitability of the soils for particular uses, or download data for further analysis in desktop tools.
