Company Summary

Hundreds of thousands of scientists collect data for regulatory reports using a fifty-year-old pen and paper process that hasn't changed much since the industry began. We're going to digitize this process and build the first historical and predictive database of this environmental data ever assembled. Rich, highly-specific, scientifically crowdsourced data about our natural resources: elements that both impact and are impacted by climate change.
