It gives me great joy to announce the EPA has released a multisite version of EJScreen!
This tool, known as
EJAM, allows users to leverage EJScreen's methods across multiple sites and perform environmental justice analysis at scale - what was once impossible due to computational and methodological constraints, can now be achieved in a simple web app.
You can find the web app here:
https://shiny.epa.gov/ejscreen-multisite/ or through the existing
EJScreen mapper -> tools -> multisite tool.
In addition, the underlying code which powers EJAM is available open source via
github!
Users can download or 'fork' the repository for their own use, in addition to contributing through 'pull' requests. Note: This repository is not directly linked to the hosted web app cited above, see more on contributing
here.
Special thanks to Mark Corrales of the EPA who leads the EJAM project and presented last spring to the Justice40 group.
