Lincoln compared with all land on Earth

The area around Lincoln scores 45 of 100 today: lower combined natural hazard than 45% of the land on Earth.

Ten pillars (0–100)

SSP5-8.5 2085 stress test

Under the SSP5-8.5 stress test for 2085, the combined score is 43 of 100.

This cell's combined hazard score is 44.9; its strongest pillar is air quality at 67.0 and its weakest is earthquake at 23.7. Flood. Flood pillar 45.2, safer than 21% of land cells and level with 49%; modelled hundred-year river flood depth 0 m.

Wind pillar 56.6, safer than 31% of land cells and level with 52%; tornado touchdowns nearby 3.6 touchdowns/decade. Source: NOAA Storm Prediction Center (vintage: 1950-2024). Hurricane. Wind pillar 56.6, safer than 31% of land cells and level with 52%; tropical storm passes nearby 0 storms/decade. Source: IBTrACS (vintage: v04r01). Earthquake. Earthquake pillar 23.7, safer than 13% of land cells and level with 21%; large earthquakes nearby since the start of the century before last 0 events/century.

Air quality pillar 67.0, safer than 67% of land cells; fine-particle air pollution 8.9 µg/m³. Source: Washington University SatPM2.5 (vintage: 2020-2024 annual mean). Coverage: No coast data exists for this cell, so it is left out of the combined score and the remaining pillar weights are renormalized. This is a statistical summary of public hazard data, a research estimate, not advice about any property or decision.

Terra scores ~10 km hexagonal cells from public global datasets — it is area analysis, not a property assessment. Tornado history covers the United States only; flood hazard is modeled at ~1 km and ignores local defenses; hurricane records before 1966 and wildfire records before 2001 are incomplete. Where data is missing or coarse for your area, Terra says so instead of guessing.
