Our Company
UrbanFootprint is the world’s first Resilience Intelligence Platform. We provide critical intelligence to the institutions rebuilding the world’s infrastructure. Where does the energy sector invest in electrification, decarbonization, and asset hardening in the face of climate threats? Where do cities and businesses invest to catch up with e-commerce, last-mile delivery, and new mobility? Where do governments deploy relief and new infrastructure to combat record hunger, homelessness, and hazard vulnerability? UrbanFootprint provides detailed and actionable answers to these questions and more.
UrbanFootprint organizes, normalizes, and aligns thousands of urban, climate, and community metrics across the continental U.S. The platform delivers targeted insights via dynamic data streams and collaborative web mapping applications.
