Climate Risks

Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of extreme weather, highlighting asset vulnerabilities and threatening systems, services, and societies.

Digital Twin

A digital twin is a virtual representation of real-world entities and processes, synchronized at a specified frequency and fidelity. (Digital Twin Consortium)

Machine Learning

Unique spatial and temporal downscaling from large-scale data to local-scale analytics and site-specific insights with proprietary AI/ML technology.

Internet of Things

IoT data feeds from public and private networks of distributed stations and sensors in support of low-regret, adaptive strategies such as the observational method.

Adaptation Actions

Infrastructure demands 60-80% of total climate change adaptation spend worldwide — $150-$450 billion per year by 2050.

Asset Lifecycle

To date, the planning, delivery, operation, and maintenance of infrastructure generally assumes a future climate the same as today’s. (McKinsey Global Institute 2020)

Bad Infrastructure

America’s infrastructure is already poor and falling, with significant deficiencies — increasing vulnerabilities to weather and climate extremes. (ASCE Report Card)
