Released maps

Maps of Future of Work and Skills are published here once their data rights are cleared and they have been reviewed. Each shows its time and space reference, its sources and its uncertainty.

Future of Work and Skills · Map workspaceMap workspace, in outline: domain structure with placeholder names and illustrative values, not a record.

01In brief

The short answer.

Future of Work and Skills released maps are reviewed map views of work and skills, published once their data rights are cleared, each with its coordinate reference, date, sources and uncertainty. Layers draw on sources such as ILOSTAT. A map shows released, rights-cleared evidence, not a live feed or an official warning.

02Canvas

Scoping to review.

Canvas · scoping to reviewDesign, not a record
Released maps: from layers to a published mapLayers are ingested with their licences, reprojected and harmonised, analysed (overlay, zonal statistics, indices), checked for uncertainty and published as a map with its passport. Design of the process, not a record of a run.

03Geography

Climate signals in World.

Surface heat, rain, snow, sea ice, marine heat and water storage, each a dated satellite or model product, framed on World; each layer is a dated NASA product.

The interactive map needs JavaScript; the layer list and sources are below.

06Reading the maps

Cautions that apply to work and skills maps.

  • Exposure maps are not job-loss maps.
  • Informal work is undercounted.
  • Heat stress maps depend on work type assumed.
