Powered by groundbreaking Earth Science AI technology, Cervest's EarthScan combines earth science, data modeling and machine learning to present a unified view of climate risk across millions of global assets for the first time. EarthScan gives enterprises, governments and NGOs on-demand access to current, historical, and predictive intelligence on how combined climate risks can impact the physical assets they own or manage. This enables them to manage decisions across an asset's entire lifecycle -- from identifying future growth prospects and monitoring risk to collaborating on adaptation and decarbonization strategies.
