GLOBIOweb is a online tool designed to provide easy access to indicators and spatial data generated with the GLOBIO model. Via the interface, users can easily view and navigate over the global map and explore model results for recent years as well as future scenarios. To support further offline mapping and analysis, users can select and download model results for a region and year of interest. GLOBIOweb also provides interoperable access to an online Web Map Service to share information with various online

Currently GLOBIOweb provides global maps of local terrestrial biodiversity intactness, as represented by the mean species abundance (MSA) indicator, at a 10 arcsecond spatial resolution, roughly 300m x 300m at the equator. The MSA values have been modelled in GLOBIO as a function of six human impacts on biodiversity: climate change, atmospheric nitrogen deposition, land use, disturbance by roads, habitat fragmentation and hunting. See the What is GLOBIO? page for more information on the GLOBIO model and the

Global MSA maps are available for the recent past, starting from 1992, and for three future scenarios for the year 2050. For user-selected administrative regions, watersheds or custom defined extents, GLOBIOweb generates summary information on:
