Climate Data for Long-Term Planning and Resilience

This dataset provides comprehensive historical and projected climate data—including temperature, precipitation, and extreme events—across diverse geographic locations. It supports infrastructure planning, flood and wildfire risk mapping, and grid resilience investment analysis, making it invaluable for long-term climate adaptation and risk management strategies.

Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 100 rows came out of a blueprint — 21 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.

Rules it was built with
  • Historical period (e.g., 1991-2020) and future scenario (RCP 4.5, RCP 8.5)
  • Temperature trends: annual average, extreme heat days (>95°F)
  • Precipitation changes: total annual, intense rainfall events, drought frequency
  • Sea level rise projections (feet) for coastal substations and flooding
  • Wildfire risk index and expansion of high-risk zones
  • Hurricane intensity and frequency projections
  • Cooling degree day increases and peak load growth
  • Infrastructure hardening investments: undergrounding, flood barriers, fire-resistant poles
