Field notes
The six collections divide the material into Environment, Europe, Energy, Transport, Land & heritage, and Curiosities. The homepage says the UK climate collection reaches from historical data to projected warming, while the Europe collection includes population, terrain, building age and protected nature. Its guided stories move through selected places, years and layers; the homepage also distinguishes data presented as observed, modelled, projected or live.
