World Climate & Environmental Data

The world consists of complex, multiple integrated ecosystems.

 

"The 4th Industrial Revolution (4IR) is a fusion of advances in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, the Internet of Things (IoT), genetic engineering, quantum computing, and more."

 

Digital transformation is happening across all organisations and offers opportunity to tackle global challenges such as

 

  • Climate Change,

  • Infectious Disease Control

  • Food and Water Security

  • Information Security and Privacy

  • Ethical and Inclusive approaches to Artificial Intelligence

​

We pose the question, is the global community doing enough to detect, respond and recover our planet for future generations?

Our cities and council play an important role in planning, managing and securing our places. 

This includes

  • Contributing UN Sustainability Goals

  • Enhancing Data Maturity for "smartness"
