Independent intelligence for environmental and social decisions.

Capabilities

How we work. Built on evidence.

Four capabilities that turn evidence into decisions partners can use.

We synthesize public records, reanalysis, projections, and field evidence into intelligence products that support resilience, adaptation, and social policy decisions.

Research and intelligence

We synthesize public records, reanalysis, projections, and field evidence into intelligence products that support resilience, adaptation, and social policy decisions.

Decision support

We turn methods into usable outputs: reports, maps, briefs, indicators, and tools that support planning, targeting, communication, and review.

Open methods

Every major output should be explainable. That means documented assumptions, visible data provenance, versioned artifacts, and methods that can be reviewed.

Data & AI

We apply structured data, statistical and machine-learning methods, and geospatial analysis where context is place-based — built for use, not presentation alone.

Approach

Three steps.
Designed for clarity.

Approach

Three steps.Designed for clarity.

Step I

Define the decision

Clarify the context, constraints, and what a better decision looks like for the people who will use the work.

project.ts
1project.intake({
2  decision: 'Adaptation planning',
3  region: 'coastal district',
4  users: ['agency', 'NGO', 'community'],
5  horizon: '6–18 months'
6})
Ready

Step II

Build the evidence layer

Combine datasets, maps, and models into methods you can audit: sources, assumptions, limitations, and update cadence.

project.ts
1evidence.layer({
2  sources: ['public_data', 'earth_observation', 'field_notes'],
3  methods: ['spatial_analysis', 'stat_model'],
4  outputs: ['indicators', 'maps', 'briefing']
5})
Ready

Step III

Deliver something usable

Turn evidence into tools, briefs, and workflows that teams can use immediately, with clear uncertainty and guardrails.

Ecosystems

Built to connectdata to decisions.

We work across public data, administrative records, partner systems, and field context. The challenge is not only collecting information, but turning it into evidence that is interpretable, defensible, and usable.

Trust

Trust isnon-negotiable.

Decisions need confidence. That comes from transparent methods, responsible data handling, and outputs that can be checked rather than simply accepted.

Data provenanceMethods notesVersioned outputsPrivacy-by-designOpen licensing

Methods transparency

Clear assumptions, source descriptions, and limitations should sit alongside every major report, model, map, or dataset.

Privacy and stewardship

Partner information should be handled carefully, with practical safeguards, proportionate access control, and respect for context.

Governance by design

Decision support should account for uncertainty, misuse risk, and the consequences of how evidence is interpreted across institutions and communities.

Reproducibility

Documented workflows and versioned outputs make it easier to review results, compare updates, and reuse work without starting from zero.

For partners

Built withthe field in mind.

We publish methods and build tools that support real workflows: planning, monitoring, and communication.

Open methods

Readable, reproducible workflows and assumptions.

Partner-ready

Built for collaboration, review, and iteration.

Data stewardship

Practical privacy and responsible handling.

Clear artifacts

Reports, briefs, and tools that are easy to use.
