The Goal

From smartphone LiDAR to airborne surveys, FluxAtlas is designed to unify environmental observations across scales and through time.

The Challenge

Coastal and riverine environments are changing faster than ever, forcing communities to adapt. Yet, understanding these changes remains fundamentally difficult.

  • Coastal and riverbank erosion threaten infrastructure
  • Traditional surveys are expensive and infrequent
  • Communities lack continuous, actionable information for climate adaptation
Active coastal erosion

A New Standard for Monitoring

Existing Tools

  • Capture one survey
  • Process data manually
  • One survey team
  • Raw point clouds

FluxAtlas

  • Build a continuous monitoring record
  • Automatic alignment & analysis
  • Community + professional data combined
  • Decision-ready insights

Technology Platform

Built to eliminate the bottlenecks of traditional geospatial processing.

Consumer Devices

Decision-ready Results

Unlock cm accurate outputs from the smartphones and off-the-shelf drones already deployed in your communities.

Multi-Source

One Shared Terrain Model

Seamlessly integrate varied datasets—from phone LiDAR to satellite imagery—into a single, cohesive environment.

Time

Measure Change, Not Just Geometry

Stop looking at static 3D models. Accurately measure erosion, deposition, and precise volumetric change over time.

Automation

Reduce Weeks to Minutes

Our algorithms handle the complex alignment of repeat surveys, replacing weeks of manual GIS labor with automated workflows.

What can you monitor with FluxAtlas?

Coastal & Riverine Erosion Monitoring

Track erosion and landscape change over time.

Infrastructure Risk

Monitor assets and surrounding terrain.

Community Monitoring

Enable local organizations to contribute repeat observations.

Research & Adaptation

Build datasets that support scientific research and climate adaptation.

Built on Research. Designed for Practice.

Academic Research

FluxAtlas originated from research into community-based coastal monitoring at the University of British Columbia and has grown into a platform for making repeat, community based, environmental monitoring more accessible.

Field Validation

Designed from firsthand experience conducting coastal monitoring in some of Canada's most challenging environments. Developed and tested across diverse environments including the Arctic, Coastal BC, and the Great Lakes.

Professional Practice

Developed directly by practicing coastal engineers to solve real-world industry bottlenecks.

Community Focused

Built to empower all users, not just the GIS wizards, to use terrain data to make the decisions that matter.

Our Vision

We believe measuring how the Earth changes should be as accessible as viewing satellite imagery today.

FluxAtlas is building the collaborative platform that enables communities, engineers, researchers, and governments to measure and understand landscape change anywhere in the world.
