Natural Asset Management
Invest in resilient green infrastructure and innovative nature-based solutions for sustainable cities.
Natural solutions often far outperform engineered solutions for municipal infrastructure and utility needs, by providing multi-faceted ecosystem services. We assess, design and manage natural assets that build climate-change resilience, preserve clean water, promote biodiversity, improve soil quality, mitigate natural disasters, support traditional infrastructure, and more.
Leaders in GIS-powered natural asset inventories to support asset management services
Dougan Ecology has over three decades of experience implementing robust inventory methods to assess the condition of natural assets using ecological indicators. Thorough evaluations inform sustainable management strategies. Assessments also offer insight into the valuation of current or future natural assets for municipal asset management plans.
Our tools include expert use of remote sensing, and leveraging advanced machine learning techniques to provide precise and comprehensive analyses. We take advantage of cutting-edge remote sensing technologies, such as high resolution satellite and aerial imagery, to monitor and map natural assets accurately.
Dougan Ecology works with analytics partners, such as environmental economics consultants, to analyze, field verify, and report on natural assets including vegetation, soil, and wetlands.
