Natural hazards in 3D

What happens when nature strikes where you live?

Two tools on the same map: pick a place in Norway and see how water or fire moves through the terrain, hour by hour.

Cloudburst

Where does the water run when the skies open?

Drop a cloudburst or a whole year of rain on an area and watch the water gather, hour by hour – on terrain, buildings and roads from laser data.

  • Flooded roads and houses
  • Quick clay and landslides from NVE
  • Surface water and drains

Wildfire

How fast does the fire spread?

Light a fire anywhere in Norway and watch it run with wind, slope and dry forest floor. Lay firebreaks and move ignition points as incident commander.

  • Tree species from NIBIO
  • Ember spotting on the wind
  • Weather forecast from MET
