Data Visualization

The value of data is amplified when it is made understandable and accessible. Our data visualization specialists work closely with our scientists to ensure that we provide customized, scientifically robust, and engaging data visualization products and tools for our clients and their stakeholders.

We believe in data democratization, and develop custom interactive data visualization tools that ensure data results are accessible, understandable, and transparent.

Our Popup map, an interactive data visualization tool, is known as an engaging and accessible platform for sharing data with our clients and with regulators. This platform allows users to explore multivariate data on their own and promotes transparency during permitting reviews.

Working closely with our hard bottom benthic ecologists, our team is developing tools to support the assessment of function from structure and to communicate these results through 3-D models that can be viewed from multiple angles.

Morro Bay, California Wind Energy Area Risk Evaluation Risk Evaluation, Fisheries Desktop Study, and Data Visualization Platform

We developed a Popup map to communicate the results of a desktop Risk Assessment related to the sale and purchase of a lease block in the Morro Bay Wind Energy Area. The Popup paired risk assessment results grouped by type with available public data and highlighted high-risk zones, impacts, and implications.

US EPA Dredged Material Monitoring

Our data scientists developed a a suite of interactive plots and maps to accompany a report on taxa documented using underwater towed video at the Mouth of the Columbia River Ocean Dredged Material Disposal Site. These plots enabled the U.S. EPA to investigate fine-scale patterns and results in the data that could not easily be displayed in static figures.
