ClearSpot score

0%

ClearSpot detects significant environmental pressure in Townsville: multiple modules register elevated burden, with wind turbines as the strongest signal.

Published tables use the same default thresholds for everyone so rankings stay comparable. On the home map, your tuned sensitivities still drive the live chip.

Environmental indicators

Module Score What this means
Wind turbines 57% Moderate wind turbine proximity score (57%). At least one documented turbine installation falls within a distance range flagged at default sensitivity thresholds.
Pollen 0% No significant pollen pressure detected within default ClearSpot thresholds for the current reference period.
Air quality 0% No air quality pressure detected within default ClearSpot thresholds for this location.
Noise 0% No major strategic noise sources are documented within default ClearSpot sensitivity thresholds for this location.
Light pollution 0% Light pollution data shows no significant radiance pressure within default ClearSpot thresholds for this location.

How to read this place

The score sits in the middle band: several environmental signals are present. Use the map, the module guides, and your tuned thresholds to see which layers matter for you.

Short-term vs long-term

In the short term, spikes come from weather, pollen season, construction, or night lighting—use the live map when deciding whether to open a window or plan outdoor time.

Over months and years, patterns matter for where you settle: turbine proximity, chronic noise corridors, recurring pollen sources, and persistent air basins. The blog and data guides explain how each layer is built.
