Maps inventory

Below is a list of all maps currently published on probablefutures.org.

In the table below, the map name links to the map on probablefutures.org/maps. The ID can be used to identify the map in the various resources described in this documentation, such as in the maps and data APIs. The category describes the climate condition or trend that relates to the map.

To see this list in a spreadsheet with additional metadata such as map units, tileset IDs, climate model information, and technical descriptions, please see the Probable Futures Public Dataset Inventory.

Map versions

The Probable Futures mission includes making climate risk information available as a public resource. In keeping with this mission, we periodically update the underlying data in our map tilesets.

When we make updates, we publish a short summary of the update on the map version history page of the Probable Futures website.

Identifying the version of a map

On the public platform maps, you can always find the version number at the bottom left corner of the map. It will appear in small text such as “Probable Futures map v3” which links to the map version history page mentioned above.

In Probable Futures tilesets, you can always find the version number in the tileset ID. For example, the tileset ID for the tileset that is the eastern portion of the Days above 32°C (90°F) map is probablefutures.40104-east-v3, so it is one half of a version three map (and the other half is the west tileset, called probablefutures.40104-west-v3). Learn more about tilesets.

Use the latest

It is always best to use the latest tilesets. If you have an application, please consider checking for updates at least once a year.
