Could you build this?
Partial The site UI and comparisons are buildable, but producing consistent, precise town-level metrics across climate, amenities, transport, and hazards requires real data engineering and methodology work on open datasets.
What it would actually take: Build a geospatial data pipeline that ingests open sources (climate reanalysis, OpenStreetMap, transit feeds, hazard maps), normalizes them to town boundaries, and tracks uncertainty per value, with a map frontend. The hard part is the methodology: making town-level values comparable across countries and recording precision honestly. That requires GIS and data science skills, plus time to validate the results.
