Mojave Desert city with the highest US water stress. Extreme summer heat and chronic drought. ClimateIntel scores four independent stress dimensions for Las Vegas, NV — heat, water, ecological, and urban — using live MODIS satellite temperature and vegetation data, TerraClimate precipitation and vapor pressure deficit, USGS NLCD landcover, and gridded population density.
Each of the four dimensions is scored on a 0–1 scale by its own XGBoost regressor trained on 5,707 CONUS-wide satellite samples. A Gemini AI layer then reads the raw satellite readings for Las Vegas and generates weighted, location-specific policy recommendations. All analysis is free, no signup required.
