Climate Science, Weather, and Earth Observation

Climate Change and Carbon Cycle Solutions

Local, national, and international agencies are building complex models to assess the drivers of climate change and estimate future effects.

Drawing on our expertise in climate science and impact analysis, SAIC is pioneering new studies and approaches to understand climate impacts.

• Climate change impacts, vulnerability, and adaptations

We also help our customers respond to climate impacts by identifying and ranking potential climate risks, then applying integrated planning and engineering to create short- and long-term strategies for adapting to these risks.

Weather and Water Cycle Solutions

From water supplies to reuse, SAIC helps decision makers in business and government find the right path to reliable, sustainable water resources.

We deliver creative, comprehensive water cycle solutions based on a thorough understanding of water science, engineering and construction, and environmental regulations built on strong capabilities in:

• Atmospheric and ocean observation
• Data dollection, processing, management, and archiving
• Weather modeling and forecasting
• Precipitation forecasting
• River flow modeling
• Climate change modeling and prediction

Resource managers turn to SAIC to help diversify their water portfolios while reducing waste, increasing quality, and enhancing sustainability. We also know how to use advanced technology to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

Land Use and Land Change Solutions

SAIC unites local observations and remote sensing imagery with deep science knowledge to help land resource managers monitor land resources, sustain their value, and unlock their potential.

We transform diverse data into focused information for applications including agriculture, ecosystem management, emergency response, flood and drought early warning, and urban planning.

SAIC's innovative solutions for land management draw from our comprehensive experience in earth sciences, geographic information systems (GIS), satellite imagery, and remote sensing data. Our capabilities include:

• Remote sensing and in situ observation
• High-resolution commercial satellite imagery
• Custom imagery products based on the Landsat data set
• LiDAR urban modeling and data feature extraction
• Geospatial data production and dissemination
• Cartography and mapping services
• Change modeling and forecasting
• Management and planning decision tools
