NUKEMAP is a mapping mash-up that calculates the effects of the detonation of a nuclear bomb.
It gives information about the ranges of prompt effects (blast, heat, acute ionizing radiation), delayed effects (fallout contamination), and calculates estimates as to the numbers of possible casualties based on an underlying database of global ambient population density. NUKEMAP made an appearance on the Daily Show with John Stewart in 2013.
Outrider. What would happen if a nuclear bomb went off in your backyard? We wanted to answer this question with a visually compelling multimedia experience, so we partnered with Bluecadet to design a location-based interactive that made it easy to learn how a bomb blast would affect your neighborhood.
The new version uses real-time weather conditions to estimate a blast's radioactive-fallout zones. The new version can also export data to 3D mapping software like Google Earth.
This library outputs distances for various effects of the bomb. These distances are then translated into coordinates that the Google Maps API can understand (either circles of fixed radii or more complicated fallout polygons), and then displayed through the Mapbox interface.
Experience the power of a low-yield nuclear weapon in your area.
