In the era of finite resources and fragmented property ownership, strategic site selection underpins sustainable development. Our platform transforms the precision of an accurate parcel map into a dynamic tool anticipating the future of real estate development. Alongside the context of optimal sites for solar, residential, and conservation land, our users harness the full natural capital of every acre and find clarity about land in an uncertain future.
predict the futureDon't just guess which properties will be developed... Stay one step ahead of the competition, and understand why. Justify carbon and conservation projects with automatic detailed and logical risk factors, more accurately pre-qualify landowners for your next community solar campaign, or proactively guide development and mitigation projects in your community.
Decisions that permanently affect open space - whether through real estate development or conservation - always come with trade-offs. Configure your site search to optimize for multiple impact dimensions, including climate, food, and energy. Upstream Carbon will do the heavy lifting and rank sites based on your objectives, so that you don't have to deal with consolidating different raster or vector data sources. Plus, you can keep the data outputs!
Upstream Carbon goes beyond parcels. Have you ever needed to measure patterns of Current Use program enrollment in a farming corridor, account for adjacent conservation land, or had your planning frustrated by small, fragmented properties? Us too, so we designed the system to analyze relationships between groups of nearby properties and find shared connections.
