What happened if that disaster happened in Australia

The garbage swirls that sit off Hawaii cover the southern states of Australia when you put Sydney's postcode.

The BBC commissioned the design company, Berg, to assist them build catastrophe maps which overlay a natural disaster over another part of the world.

The site does recognise some Australian passwords. If all else fails I used postcode 2000 which it recognised.

LMI RiskCoach is currently working with Arch Underwriting at Lloyd’s Australia to bring geospacial risk information to the Australian underwriters and brokers and it was as part of the research that Adam Matteson of Arch passed this site on to me.

This site shows the power of geospacial technology and I will keep interested readers informed of developments and when we are ready to release the Beta Version of the new service.
