Sustainable urban development and livability

Design urban layouts that balance growth and sustainability. Leverage geospatial data to optimize land use, evaluate zoning compliance, and promote urban green spaces to enhance liveability.

Sustainable urban planning and zoning
Plan urban layouts that balance development and sustainability. Assess zoning compliance and identify potential areas for strategic growth. Promote smarter urban design with geospatial insights.
  • Map and analyze historical and current urban layouts and identify expansion areas.
  • Evaluate zoning compliance to ensure responsible development.
  • Analyze the impacts of urban sprawl on infrastructure and services.
  • Support adaptive urban governance and strategic urban planning and land-use management.

We utilize satellite data and advanced geospatial analytics to monitor urban layouts, evaluate zoning compliance, and support efficient land-use planning, ensuring sustainable and responsible urban growth.

Slum monitoring and services upgrading
Monitor slum areas to assess living conditions and improve essential services. Support targeted interventions and resource allocation with real-time data.
  • Map how slum locations evolve and how infrastructure gaps contribute to this process
  • Analyze population density and living condition trends
  • Support planning for essential services like water, waste management, and transportation
  • Monitor the impact of slum upgrading and redevelopment initiatives

Using satellite imagery and geospatial tools, we provide actionable insights to support slum upgrading projects, enhance service delivery, and improve living conditions in urban areas.

Green spaces and open areas
Enhance urban livability by monitoring and managing green spaces and open areas. Promote biodiversity and improve recreational opportunities for urban residents.
  • Create maps of green spaces and monitor vegetation health.
  • Analyze urban green coverage and its quaility – distribution, connectivity, accesibility and inclusivity
  • Identify opportunities for creating or expanding green infrastructure.
  • Support planning for urban parks and recreational facilities.
  • Link green infrastructure development with other co-benefits like walkability, alternative mobility, air quality and climate resilience.

Leveraging satellite data, we help cities maintain and expand green spaces, improve urban biodiversity, and promote sustainable urban environments.

Retrospective urban analysis

Evaluate historical urban growth patterns and assess the impact of previous urban expansion on infrastructure and natural resources. Utilize rich satellite archives to support and optimize strategic urban redevelopment and environmental restoration efforts.

Proactive urban monitoring

Monitor ongoing urban expansion and environmental changes in real-time. Detect critical developments such as unauthorized construction, environmental degradation, or urban heat islands, and mitigate risks and optimize mitigation activities costs promptly.

Custom delivery format

Receive urban analysis outputs tailored to your needs: interactive maps, comprehensive technical reports, or API integrations for seamless data access.

Advanced data analytics

Enhance decision-making with predictive analytics, scenario simulations, and urban resilience modelling based on multi-source geospatial data.
