Tessera is a building-level risk map combining seismic retrofit priority, air quality, heat, green access, and terrain data.

Why it surfaced

The site says it scores 1,233,860 buildings across 10 data layers, using Turkey's Law 6306, FEMA's P-154 screening method, real İBB monitoring-station readings, and WHO thresholds. It turns a sprawling compliance and climate-data problem into one building-level number and an interactive map.
