The Environmental Quality of Life indicator at Street Level
Do you know how parks, gardens and street trees contribute to the health and resilience of your city?
Do you know how your quality of life benefits from urban vegetation?
Many studies have demonstrated that green spaces provide numerous benefits to the health and wellbeing
of city inhabitants. Benefits such as capturing CO2, providing shade (lowering energy expenditure) as well as their intangible social value, trees, and other green infrastructure are becoming a priority for city authorities, urban markets and citizens. Our GreenDEX rating provides this information based on high resolution satellite data.

GreenDEX® & GreenDEX® Map
Greenness rating of neighbourhoods and distribution of the urban vegetation
The Green Index translates the vegetation observed from satellite data to an easily interpretable value (Gx), quantifying the vegetation present around your home. The GreenDEX Map shows how the vegetation is distributed in your city, and which is the quality of it (vegetation health).
Heat Islands mapping
Thermal map at district resolution.
Our Heat Islands map is taken from thermal images and provides a hyper-local resolution. Locate the hotter parts of the city and correlate the heat islands effects with the amount of vegetation.
Tree health and inventory update
Based on satellite images analysis and in situ information it is possible to map with high accuracy health and distribution of plants in urban areas, and their diversity, for urban green management in order to maximize the benefits that trees and green areas provides.
How do we do it ?
Earth Observation & Ancillary data
Data acces
Satellite data provides a large-scale view of an area. We use high-resolution optical Earth Observation data from different satellites, depending on resolution and frequency needed. The Earth Observation data is combined with other relevant data to help refine and reconstruct the green landscape.
Cloud Data Service
Data processing
The processing chain includes a primary treatment to obtain the normalised difference vegetation information and a post treatment to delimit the areas of study. The service is deployed and run within a scalable cloud system that allows for processing and dissemination of data covering entire cities and its surroundings.
API Gateway
Data delivery
Our API provides the GreenDEX Maps and allows the instant generation of the Green Index. The provision of information through API allows for the flexible design of innovative online services as the user demands.
