Cities Climate Action Summit 2024 – meet the exhibitor: Latitudo 40

Why did you choose to get involved with Cities Climate Action Summit this year?

We want to demonstrate the vital role satellite data has to play in helping cities tackle the challenges of climate change. Latitudo 40 is at the cutting edge of technology, where the intricate worlds of satellite imagery analysis and artificial intelligence (AI) converge. Our core mission is to transform complex geospatial data into actionable insights that empower decision-makers across diverse sectors. In a landscape where raw data is abundant but usable information is scarce, Latitudo 40 steps in to bridge this gap by providing detailed and precise geospatial intelligence to support urban planning, environmental monitoring, and sustainable development.

What will you be showing/bringing/demonstrating at this year’s Summit?

We will show how satellite data can be used in a wide number of sectors and address a multitude of key indicators that would be otherwise difficult to estimate with enough accuracy. Our expertise lies in analysing high-resolution satellite imagery through advanced AI techniques. These images, captured by various satellite systems, offer a comprehensive view of the earth’s surface, enabling us to extract valuable insights that are crucial for understanding and managing our planet’s dynamic landscapes.

What bold steps should cities make to accelerate climate action and what successful examples have you seen?

We have seen a number of different use cases in which satellite data has directly influenced climate action plans. These include a project run for Autostrade per l’Italia called GeoGreen, where it helped them identify where to install photovoltaic systems. Meanwhile, through the use of our Urban Simulator, the City of Milan was able to predict the effect of de-paving Neera Street. 

Latitudo 40 is committed to driving innovation while promoting sustainability. We believe that making informed decisions based on accurate geospatial data is essential for addressing the complex challenges of our time, from urban expansion and climate change to disaster resilience and resource management. We look forward to sharing these and other use cases at Cities Climate Action Summit 2024.
