Planning for Future Climate Risk

Climate data analytics and services are the foundation for effective emergency management planning as they provide objective, measurable insight into climate trends and impacts, enabling informed decision-making.

By analyzing historical and future conditions data, these services help guide data-driven, scientific actions to reduce emissions and enhance resilience. Without appropriate inclusion of climate data into the emergency management cycle, the risk to communities will grow and put the United States at greater risk of increasing disaster costs.

Planning Tools

The Climate Risk and Resilience Portal (ClimRR) empowers individuals, governments, and organizations to examine simulated future climate conditions at mid- and end-of-century for a range of climate hazards.  

Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation (CMRA) integrates information from across the federal government to help people consider their local exposure to climate-related hazards.

The Resilience Analysis and Planning Tool (RAPT) is a free, browser-based tool to inform strategies for emergency preparedness, response, and recovery.

The NRI is a dataset and online data visualization application that identifies areas most at risk for 18 natural hazards based on historical averages.
