Description:
EJSCREEN is an environmental justice screening and mapping tool that provides a nationally consistent dataset and methodology for calculating “EJ indexes,” to highlight geographic areas that may warrant further consideration, analysis, or outreach. The tool offers a variety of powerful data and mapping capabilities that enable users to access environmental and demographic information, at high geographic resolution, across the entire country; displayed in color-coded maps and standard data reports. These maps and reports show how a selected location compares to the rest of the nation, EPA region or state based on the data used by EJSCREEN. The tool combines environmental and demographic indicators to create EJ indexes.
