Heat disadvantage

Explore heat vulnerability and disadvantage datasets for Great Britain.

What it helps with

Heat disadvantage datasets combine heat exposure and social vulnerability. England and Wales use Climate Just indices; Scotland uses 4 Earth Intelligence heat hazard and deprivation data.

Coverage and considerations

Methods differ between Scotland and England/Wales, and classifications are calculated separately by nation. Northern Ireland data are not included. See the README for baseline and warming scenarios.

Data period: England/Wales: 2022 Climate Just indices; baseline and 1.5°C scenarios
