The Climate Risk Navigator for Agriculture gives a quick and up-to-date overview of weather and climate projections for over 40 major crops, for anywhere in the world.  This application connects historical weather data, current and near term forecasts, climate projections, and proprietary Gro Climate Indicators such as drought and flood.

Types Of Data Available Within The Navigator

  • Historical weather and growing conditions: NDVI, Soil Moisture, GPM aggregated precipitation
  • Current and near-term forecasts: GFS temperature and precipitation, Satellite land surface temperature
  • Gro Climate projections: Projected data to 2100 for five climate scenarios (such as SSP1-1.9 and SSP5-8.5), including key variables such as temperature and precipitation. Data is sourced from multiple CMIP6-contributing labs and bias-adjusted to improve decision-usefulness. Users are able to view projected point estimates as well as standard deviations.
  • Gro Climate Indicators (GCI): GCI - Drought Index, GCI - Weather Variability, GCI - Observed Flood, and more are in development
