Greenkeeper

Greenkeeper uses big data and research, to model the environmental, economic and social value of green infrastructure. It enables you to identify the complete value of a single green space or compare it with other similarly sized/local spaces. By collating these insights, it can also be used to build a whole portfolio or city-wide green infrastructure network value. It can fully assess the impact an intervention may have on this value. What is the benefit of a modification or extension? What is the complete value of a new proposal? By interpreting the outputs of the model, Greenkeeper can help everyone make more informed investment and management decisions.

This tool will help achieve the goal of the following objectives

  • Less Contamination
  • Less Emissions
  • Less Traffic Noise
  • Connectivity and Inclusion
  • Healthy Destinations
  • Less Traffic Violence
  • Active Transportation
  • Green Space

Estimation Technique

Greenkeeper is an online tool that helps identify the complete value of a single green space. It does this by taking into account the size, location, and amenities of the space, as well as the number of people who use it. This information is then used to generate a report that can be used to make decisions about how to best use and improve the space.
