Heat maps

Which climate risk platform is right for your business?

Definition

Heat maps are visual tools that show the intensity or distribution of data across a geographical area. In climate risk, they highlight hazard severity at specific sites or regions.

Example in context

A risk manager uses EarthScan’s heat maps to visualise flood risk across a 500-site portfolio, quickly identifying high-exposure areas for further review.

Why it matters

Heat maps make complex data easy to understand and act on. They support faster decisions in planning, reporting, and adaptation.
