The differentiators

One single objective

Operational modeling of the urban climate

Climate City’s activity is 100% focused on micro-scale observation of the climate of cities.

A field of observation serving strategic business sectors such as construction, real estate, housing, energy and water distribution, transport, insurance, etc.

More than 1,600 cities around the world have already been identified as a potential market for Climate City.

Unprecedented data

To decipher the micro-climate of cities

A unique system (Climate Birds) enables Climate City to deploy sensors carried by tethered balloons and drones at an altitude of 400 m above urban areas to observe the atmosphere in an ultra-local manner.

These sensors complement satellite observation and surface weather networks, and are dedicated to the study of parameters such as temperature, wind speed, humidity, and fine particle density.

This three-dimensional observation of urban micro-climates makes it possible to produce unprecedented climate data via methods and means that guarantee for the first time the surgical, operational, and continuous analysis of the urban climate.

Unique expertise

To anticipate urban climate risks in the medium term

Based on the statistical analysis of collected data and on scientific modeling of the urban climate, fed by climate data and a detailed approach to the geography of the urban areas concerned, Climate City
develops predictions that make it possible to anticipate climate risks in the medium term, at urban micro-scale (by district).

The combined science and monitoring ensure that the encounter between anthropogenic impacts in
the urban atmosphere and regional and global climate change— a major shaper of the urban climate—is taken into account.
Indices and trends are produced in advance by Climate City based on analysis of historical climate data, and the shape and geographical position of the city.

Solutions for…

Realistic adaptation of urban infrastructure to climate change

With a very precise capacity for anticipating risks, and representative of the reality of micro-scale urban phenomena, Climate City enables realistic adaptation of the city, its districts, all the urban areas concerned, and their infrastructure to climate change.

Climate City’s indices, trends, and models make it possible to define adaptation strategies with a
decision-making tool that fits right into a precise spatiotemporal framework.
