Mission
The OpenPlanet Risk Intelligence Platform aims to democratize climate adaptation by transforming complex planetary-scale data into accessible, decision-ready intelligence. The platform bridges the gap between raw climate datasets such as CMIP6 and ERA5 and actionable socioeconomic insights, enabling researchers, policymakers, and urban planners to quantify heat stress, mortality risk, and economic vulnerability without requiring advanced technical expertise.
At its core, the platform reduces the friction between climate science and real-world decision-making, ensuring that critical insights are not limited to institutions with high computational or technical capacity.
The OpenPlanet Risk Intelligence Platform develops asynchronous, scalable computation engines that automate advanced climate and epidemiological modeling workflows. Its primary contributions include providing free, self-serve tools for calculating thermodynamic wet-bulb temperatures based on established physical formulations and enabling heat-attributable mortality estimation using peer-reviewed epidemiological frameworks.
It translates multi-dimensional climate data into localized, high-resolution risk metrics tailored for urban heat islands and vulnerable populations, making scientifically rigorous analysis operational at the point of need.

Voluntary Commitments
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
