4 Assess Flood and Sea Level Rise Risk Leverage open data and open technologies to more easily visualize flood and sea level rise risk. Customize the analysis and share the results. Increase collaboration across agencies and communication outreach to the public. Pick from FEMA floodplains or NOAA Sea Level Rise Scenarios to estimate economic losses at the building, neighborhood, or city level. Pick from +70 datasets that represent demographic data and critical infrastructure from hospitals and schools to roads and levees for the most accurate, web-based climate risk assessment available. Our platform is designed for government users from urban planners and sustainability officers to hazard mitigation officers and floodplain managers who need to understand their community s coastal and riverine vulnerability.

5 Introducing Vizonomy The explosion of location aware technologies and digital mapping tools has transformed how organizations & individuals interact with geography. At Vizonomy, we apply this insight to build a platform that begins to automate the climate risk assessment process. Our feature-rich platform meets cross sector needs in mapping, complex data analysis, and visualization. Let data-driven decisions support you to make a more resilient community. Founder and CEO: Ricardo Saavedra Year Founded: 2014 No. of Employees: 9 Location: th St, Washington DC, 20005

11 What do cities do today to assess Flood Risk? Washington DC

12 What do cities do today to understand Sea Level Rise? Washington DC

13 OUR SOLUTION 1/2 Data ~ 700 GB Sea Level Rise Scenarios (1-6 ) NOAA Floodplains 100yr, 500yr FEMA Critical Infrastructure and Key Facilities DHS Building Footprints Open Street Map Social Media - Twitter Flood Damage Functions FEMA Satellite Imagery (5m) Planet Labs Predictive Storm Surge NHC and Kinanco Demographic, Rail, Road US Census *Import CSV, Shapefile, KML, GeoJSON Washington DC

14 OUR SOLUTION 2/2 Infrastructure Amazon Web Services MongoDB - Twitter Data Mining Postgres + Postgis Spatial Storage and Query GeoServer Spatial Rendering GDAL Image Processing User Interface D3.js, Higcharts Data Visualization Mapbox, CartoDB - Basemap Design-focused Washington DC

15 Terrain Social Media OUR DATA SOURCES + PARTNERS Flood Scenarios Climate Risk Visualization for Adaptation Planning and Emergency Response Openstreet Map Sea Level Rise Scenarios Critical Infrastructure Adaptation Planning Demographics Satellite Imagery

16 Building Vulnerability Evaluate direct building losses using FEMA s +500 loss assessment curves. Building footprints included. Obtain flood zone and depth for the 100 or 500YR flood and the 1 to 6ft Sea Level Rise scenarios.

17 City & Neighborhood Vulnerability Select +70 datasets from local, state, and federal sources to develop an assessment. Includes hospital, schools, roads, demographic info, and more. Determine which assets are exposed by hazard scenario within a neighborhood, city or county. With your customized analysis, share results within your agency through a private link or PDF report.

18 Infrastructure & Critical Sector Vulnerability Develop a vulnerability analysis across 12 sectors, incl. government, financial, maritime transport, health, emergency, etc. Determine how many assets by category and within each sector are exposed to FEMA s 100 or 500yr floodplains or to each of NOAA s 1ft to 6ft Sea Level Scenarios. Assess which assets are specifically exposed by scenario. Includes asset name, location, and depth.

19 Social Media Real-Time Emergency Response Easily search hazard-related keywords from Twitter using semantic analysis. Filter results by time and location. See which areas are likely to be exposed to storm surge 12 to 24hrs in advance, using NOAA models. Coming Soon: Receive automated text and updates on upcoming hazard events and assets exposed. Use for coordination and crowdsourcing equipment location.

20 DEMO

21 Climate Risk Platform Next generation analytical platform for assessing climate risk. Our technology breaks the traditional consulting paradigm by enabling customized assessments according to the user s needs. Our platform facilitates infinite risk profiles, online sharing, and immersive visualizations for resiliency planning and emergency response. Vizonomy partners with engineering firms to develop a full suite of climate risk services.
