BioPower Atlas and BioFuels Atlas

12pm, October 05th, 2015

BioFuels Atlas is an interactive map for comparing biomass feedstocks and biofuels by location. BioPower Atlas is an interactive map for comparing biomass feedstocks and biopower by location.

Built into Google Maps, BioEnergy Atlas includes two interactive maps, BioPower and BioFuels. These maps allow users to compare and analyze biomass feedstocks, biopower and biofuels data from the US Department of Energy (DOE), US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the US Department of Agriculture (USDA).

BioFuels Atlas is an interactive map for comparing biomass feedstocks and biofuels by location. This tool helps users select from and apply biomass data layers to a map as well as query and download biofuels and feedstock data. The state zoom function summarizes state energy use and infrastructure for traditional and bioenergy power, fuels, and resources. The tool also calculates the biofuels potential for a given area.

BioPower Atlas is an interactive map for comparing biomass feedstocks and biopower by location. This tool helps users select from and apply biomass data layers to a map as well as query and download biopower and feedstock data. The analysis function offers common conversion factors that allow users to determine the potential biopower production for a selected feedstock in a specific area.
