The reports combine near real-time Rangeland Analysis Platform Production with gridMET precipitation data as PDFs/PNGs for use in reporting and decision processes.

Use in: βœ… Grazing planning & evaluation βœ… Drought assessment

Use the custom tool for any CONUS AOI or access pre-computed BLM reports.

πŸ“ˆ New from ClimateEngine.org: Vegetation Production Reports!

Developed with partners at the BLM and USDA-ARS, these reports bring satellite-based rangeland data directly into grazing and resource management workflows. Bridging the gap between data and decision-making. πŸ›°οΈπŸŒΎ

🎯 Focus your maps with categorical data! 🎯

New in Climate Engine: categorical masks to focus maps by land ownership, landcover, valley bottoms, and more.

In the demo video, see Landsat NDVI trends (1985–2025) across riparian areas at Maggie Creek, Nevada.

Today's fun task was to figure out how to dynamically visualize a DEM in the #EarthEngine Code Editor. 🌐

This script pulls the minimum and maximum values at the extent of the viewport to ensure the color ramp never saturates. 🌈

Sea Surface Temperatures are 2-6 degrees C above average for this date across large swaths of the Atlantic and Mediterranean.

The high ocean temperatures are the warmest of the past four decades for this date in many locations.
