ATLAS Environmental Data Map
Live interactive map with 1,500+ environmental layers, coast to coast.
- 4basemaps: street, satellite, hybrid and topographic
- 4buffer rings: quarter, half, three quarters and full radius
- 2,238records mapped within one mile of 1 Market St, San Francisco
Overview
ATLAS turns environmental research into an interactive, map-based workflow. Instead of reviewing environmental records as disconnected lists, explore where records occur, measure their relationship to the subject property, switch between layers, and investigate historical context, all from an always-on, subscription-based GIS interface with every environmental, regulatory, and risk layer Geoscope maintains.
A typical session
- 1
Search a location
Type an address or coordinates. The map centers on the property and marks it with a star.
- 2
Set the radius
Choose the search radius and turn buffer rings on or off. Rings are drawn at a quarter, a half, three quarters and the full radius.
- 3
Switch layers
Turn groups on and off: environmental records, flood zones, wetlands, contour lines, soils and geology. Change the basemap to street, satellite, hybrid or topographic.
- 4
Inspect the records
Open the table to filter by address, database or category and sort by distance. Use Identify on a marker and Measure for distances.
- 5
Export or order the report
Export the map or figures, or send the same search to a full report.

Questions, answered
Who can use Atlas?
Atlas is available to clients with an account. Sign in from the Client Login page, or create an account to get started.
Can I get a report from what I see on the map?
Yes. Atlas has a View Report action, and the records table lets you control which records appear in the report.
Does Atlas show pipelines?
Pipeline geometry is not shown. Federal data policy restricts public access to pipeline locations, so it is left out.
