Powering Location Data for Good
summary
ArcGIS Living Atlas surfaces ready maps and apps that tie real data to decisions: ArcGIS Living Atlas hosts the free app Indicators of the Planet that flags 1,300 locations with poor air quality (up 20% in 24 hours) and reports Arctic sea ice near its lowest since 1979; Sea Ice Aware uses NOAA and imagery to show 1979–2019 decline and drives a Norfolk story map projecting 3 ft sea level rise impacts in 2040–2080 with buildings and bridges marked high risk. Johns Hopkins COVID dashboard and Maps for Public Policy supply layered socioeconomic and health data to target interventions.
