Atlas view showing how exposure changes once occupations are broken into pathway composition rather than country averages alone.

Two countries can sit close in the aggregate while differing sharply once exposed tasks are broken into pathways and supporting layers.

One thing to know

The atlas is not just a world ranking.

It shows how the same country average can look different once you move into pathways, specific tasks, skills, and the goods-facing proxy.

The point is not only to see which countries are more exposed, but to see what kind of exposure sits underneath the country average.
