Map Your City's Emissions, Block by Block.

Neighbourhood-resolution emission hotspots, derived from satellite data and aligned with the GHG Protocol city-scale methods.

SAGE for Cities partitions the metropolitan area into a uniform grid, runs Floodlight's atmospheric quantification independently inside every cell, and resolves the streets, sectors, and infrastructure that actually drive the citywide budget.

City Climate Plans Run on Aggregate Numbers

Most cities report a citywide total. Almost none can show, with measured data, which neighbourhoods produce it.

Aggregate Blindness

Citywide totals hide the few districts and corridors that drive most emissions. Without spatial resolution, climate action plans target the average instead of the source.

Inventory Latency

Conventional municipal inventories are compiled annually from activity data with multi-year lag. By the time the number lands, the policy window has often closed.

Verification Gap

There is no independent way to prove that a low-emission zone, a building retrofit programme, or a transit upgrade actually reduced atmospheric concentration the way the model said it would.

How SAGE for Cities Works

Satellite-measured emissions at the neighbourhood level, refreshed continuously, traceable back to the original observation.

Grid-Based Hotspotting

Partition the city into a uniform grid, typically 3x3 km, refined to 1x1 km in dense districts. Run SAGE inside every cell. The neighbourhoods that drive the budget become impossible to miss.

Multi-Gas Source Attribution

Co-located CO₂, CH₄, NO₂, CO, and SO₂ retrievals distinguish combustion from fugitive emissions and heavy industry from transport. Tells you not just where the emissions are, but what kind.

Multi-Overpass Convergence

Every additional satellite pass approaches from a different wind direction. Spatial precision sharpens automatically with each pass, so the map gets more useful over time.

Measured Climate Action Impact

Quantify the real-world atmospheric impact of low-emission zones, retrofit programmes, and transit investments in months, not years. Independent of the policies' own self-reported figures.

Built for Your Team.

Designed for the people who drive climate strategy and compliance.

Urban Planning

City Planners

See which neighbourhoods, sectors, and corridors actually drive your city's emissions. Place low-emission zones, transit upgrades, and retrofit funding where each tonne avoided costs the least.

Municipal Sustainability

Sustainability Directors

Move beyond GHG Protocol activity-based estimates. Defend net-zero progress to council, citizens, and the press with independently measured atmospheric data.

Public Safety

Emergency Managers

Cross-reference neighbourhood emission maps with climate hazard exposure to identify communities at compounded risk and target adaptation resources accordingly.

Aligned with Leading Frameworks.

Our data and reporting tools help you meet the requirements of major disclosure frameworks.
