The business of geography

Data & Products

AlphaGeo collects and harnesses an expanding database of structured and unstructured data across a wide range of categories (macro, geospatial, climate, socioeconomic, demographic, market, fiscal, migration, etc.), using our in-house feature engineering pipelines to extract explainable features from them via computer vision and natural language processing (NLP) algorithms. We leverage this data to provide resilience-adjusted risk scoring and location performance forecasts, giving a more accurate “ground truth” assessment of their capacity or preparedness to cope with disruptions.

We employ proprietary methods to downscale the latest global climate models (GCMs) across six major hazard indicators (Heat Stress, Wildfire, Coast Flooding, Inland Flooding, Hurricane Wind and Drought) to the most granular coordinate level for every location on Earth. Each risk indicator is available for four different periods (2025, 2035, 2050, 2100) and four climate emission pathways (SSP245, SSP370, SSP585, and our proprietary “SSP X” acceleration scenario). Across the six risk indicators, we also provide the ~50 underlying feature datasets that determine the value of the individual risk scores.

Heat Stress

Wildfire

Coastal Flooding

We also utilize feature extraction algorithms to identify and geolocate local adaptation features pertinent to offsetting each climate hazard, giving a comprehensive assessment of a location’s capacity to withstand shocks.

Our product suite also includes forecasts of OpEx and CapEx expenditures such as insurance premiums, energy/utilities costs and maintenance/retrofit costs for discounted cashflow analysis.

We also provide more than two dozen indicators of Societal Resilience from diverse sources organized into six categories: energy generation, social robustness, economic momentum, infrastructure quality, environmental wellness, and governance effectiveness. This data is also factored into our location scoring algorithm. 

Energy Generation

Social Robustness

Economic Momentum

Infrastructure Quality

Environmental Wellness

Governance Effectiveness
