Rivers at record lows. Two-thirds of France's aquifers running below normal. Whole regions rationing water. The 2026 European drought is moving fast, and it's exposing a hard truth: most organizations' GIS tools were built for a slower world.

Join CARTO's Helen McKenzie to learn how GIS teams must rethink their spatial analysis workflows to keep up with a crisis that unfolds by the day.

You'll learn...

• The 2026 drought, in maps. A visual exploration of the scale of the drought, the local trends behind the headlines, and the impact it's having on people, businesses, and infrastructure.
•  
• For GIS teams: how to build on-demand analytics and self-service tools faster so your time goes into building powerful analytics instead of fielding ad-hoc requests.
•  
• For business and data analysts: how to get a straight answer to a question like "which of our sites or markets are exposed to this" without waiting on a specialist or filing a ticket.
•  
• For decision makers: why tracking exposure continuously, instead of once a quarter, is becoming a board-level question.

Whether you're an insurer racing to re-score exposure before renewal, a real estate team tracking demand shifts for air conditioned properties, or a retail or logistics business feeling it in your supply chain: if the climate crisis is on your mind, this one's for you.
