Specialist climate risk expertise for engineering and consulting teams
You need defensible climate analysis.
You do not need a full-time climate scientist.
Degree Day works as an extension of your project team, a white-label or named subconsultant, helping you scope, review, defend, and deliver climate analysis your clients can trust.
Tell us about your project
Urban Heat Island Modeling
Global reanalysis like ERA5 blurs a whole city into a few coarse grid cells. Degree Day's Urban Heat Island modeling resolves the neighborhood-scale heat pattern that drives real exposure like the hot urban cores and waterfront gradients.

· 1 km When to Use Us
You should talk to us when:
-
An RFP requires a defensible climate methodology and the proposal deadline is tight
-
Climate vendors produce conflicting results and you need independent reconciliation
-
A client challenges your climate assumptions and you need technical backup
-
A project requires site-specific analysis that off-the-shelf platforms cannot explain or justify
What You Gain
Reduced Risk
Clear assumptions, traceable data sources, documented methods, and technical support when clients, regulators, or reviewers ask hard questions.
Lower Burden
No recruiting, onboarding, or managing specialized climate staff. No platform subscriptions for tools you may only use occasionally.
Faster Delivery
Senior climate support that can plug into engineering and consulting workflows quickly.
Stronger Proposals
Credible climate methodology, clearer technical language, and delivery support if you win.
