Weather
Best free default for global weather and simple air-quality context.
Strong US fallback when alerting and official US products matter.
Good future complement for historical climate views.
10-year historical climate trends for temperature and precipitation.
Terrain
Current GeoSight terrain source for US coordinates.
Best future global fallback for elevation outside the US.
Soil type, drainage class, depth to water table, and depth to bedrock.
Global fallback for non-US soil profiles — provides clay/silt/sand texture, WRB soil class, drainage class, and hydrologic group derived from composition.
Hazards
Current GeoSight hazard baseline for recent seismic activity.
Best free next-step global wildfire layer.
Current global disaster-alert feed for major sudden-onset and ongoing disaster notifications.
Current GeoSight flood-zone source for US parcel and infrastructure risk context.
Global flood context for non-US coordinates — peak discharge tier (Low / Moderate / Significant / Major) as FEMA fallback.
Site-specific seismic acceleration and design parameters (SS, S1, PGA) for US infrastructure risk.
For non-US coordinates: M3+ event count and maximum magnitude in 400 km / 5 yr window → qualitative seismic exposure tier (Very Low → Very High).
Hydrology
Current GeoSight hydrology source for nearby stream gauges and discharge context.
Groundwater level and well depth context for subsurface hydrology.
Environmental quality
Current GeoSight fine-particle air-quality source when a nearby monitoring station is available.
Current GeoSight contamination-screening source for Superfund and TRI proximity.
Demographics
Current GeoSight US demographic baseline.
Current Europe demographic and household-connectivity baseline for GeoSight.
Global fallback when only national indicators are available.
Schools
Current GeoSight baseline school dataset.
Current state-level school accountability enhancement.
Broadband
Current GeoSight broadband availability source for US connectivity context.
Useful global fallback only when a connectivity proxy is acceptable.
Nearby places
Global POI baseline; school-location fallback for non-US coordinates via amenity=school/kindergarten query.
Good landmark fallback when OSM coverage is sparse.
Imagery
Current GeoSight imagery layer for the globe experience.
Best future open remote-sensing catalog for imagery cards.
Good open fallback for satellite-backed analysis.
