Open data sources used by BaanMe
OpenStreetMap
Points of interest displayed on BaanMe — including hospitals, schools, shopping centers, restaurants, places of worship, parks, beaches, and other amenities — are sourced from OpenStreetMap contributors.
OpenStreetMap data is made available under the Open Database License (ODbL). Cartography is licensed as CC BY-SA.

UNOSAT
Flood information shown on BaanMe — including the observed extent of the 2024 floods in Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Lamphun and Phayao — is derived from satellite-detected water extents published by UNOSAT, the United Nations Satellite Centre.
UNOSAT water-extent data is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike (CC BY-SA) licence. Flood exposure figures shown on BaanMe are derived from that data and are shared under the same terms.
These figures describe where water was observed during past floods, alongside terrain-based estimates. They are not a forecast and not a substitute for an official flood-risk assessment.

Derived flood-footprint GeoJSON is redistributed under CC BY-SA 4.0, with downloads available on the flood history map.
DeltaDTM
Bare-earth ground elevation on the flood map and on area pages in and around Bangkok comes from DeltaDTM v1.1, a global coastal digital terrain model by Maarten Pronk et al. (Deltares and TU Delft), published on 4TU.ResearchData (doi:10.4121/21997565).
DeltaDTM is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licence. BaanMe shows a clipped, re-encoded extract; the values are unchanged, and point figures are the median of the surrounding 3×3 cells.
DeltaDTM is produced using Copernicus WorldDEM-30 © DLR e.V. 2010-2014 and © Airbus Defence and Space GmbH 2014-2018 provided under COPERNICUS by the European Union and ESA; all rights reserved.
Open-Meteo
Elevation and terrain figures — used to estimate how exposed an area is to river flooding and flash flooding — come from Open-Meteo, which serves the Copernicus DEM GLO-90 digital elevation model.
Open-Meteo data is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licence.
Department of Provincial Administration (DOPA)
Registered population figures shown on BaanMe come from the Department of Provincial Administration (DOPA), Ministry of Interior.
DOPA population statistics are published under Open Data Common.
Treasury Department (กรมธนารักษ์)
Official land and construction-cost appraisal values shown on BaanMe come from the Treasury Department (กรมธนารักษ์).
Treasury Department appraisal data is published under Open Data Common.
Ministry of Labour
Provincial minimum-wage figures shown on BaanMe come from the Ministry of Labour.

Pollution Control Department (PCD)
Air-quality and noise-level figures shown on BaanMe come from the Pollution Control Department (PCD).
PCD air-quality and noise data is published under Open Data Common.
OpenAQ
Where PCD reference stations don't cover an area, air-quality figures may be supplemented from OpenAQ, an open-data aggregator of government and reference monitoring stations.
OpenAQ aggregates data from many providers, each under its own licence — see the OpenAQ website for the licence that applies to a specific station's data.
Copernicus DEM (GLO-30)
Base elevation data for the sea-level simulator comes from the Copernicus DEM (GLO-30), a global digital elevation model.
Copernicus DEM is available for free commercial and non-commercial use under the Copernicus DEM licence.
DeltaDTM
Coastal and delta elevation data is mosaicked with DeltaDTM v1.1 (4TU.ResearchData), a bare-earth digital terrain model for the world's major deltas.
DeltaDTM is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licence.
IPCC AR6 / NASA Sea Level Change Portal
Sea-level-rise projections come from the IPCC AR6 Sea Level Projection Tool, redistributed by NASA's Sea Level Change Portal.
IPCC AR6 sea-level data is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licence.
COMET LiCSAR / LiCSBAS
Land-subsidence velocity data comes from COMET LiCSAR/LiCSBAS, Sentinel-1 InSAR ground-velocity products.
COMET LiCSAR/LiCSBAS data is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licence.
Department of Mineral Resources (DMR)
Sinkhole (karst dissolution) susceptibility information shown on BaanMe is derived from surveys published by Thailand's Department of Mineral Resources (DMR).
DMR sinkhole survey data is made available under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) licence. Figures shown on BaanMe are derived from that data and are attributed accordingly.
A susceptibility class is a surveyed classification, not a prediction of when or whether a sinkhole will occur, and DMR has only surveyed part of Thailand — areas with no reading have not been assessed, not confirmed low-risk. This data does not cover urban road-collapse incidents (e.g. from utility-pipe leaks or tunnelling), which have a different cause and no DMR dataset.
