About
Mission & Overview
GreenInfo Network works with clients whose missions focus on environment, public health, education, and social justice. We create maps, data, and web applications that empower our clients and their communities.
Since 1996, GreenInfo has collaborated with more than 1,000 organizations and agencies across the country and even internationally. We deliver user research, data analysis, and thoughtful design.
Our Story
GreenInfo Network emerged in the mid 1990s to map regional open space. We combined information from many organizations to create shared data everyone could use. From the beginning, our purpose was not just to help nonprofits and agencies use maps, but also to connect people and groups together. That ensures our work has collective value.
Some of what we do:
- Work with local, regional and state agencies to collect data about public lands.
- Map school campuses for public health researchers studying tobacco marketing.
- Collaborate with tribes and other partners to make maps of proposed national monuments.
- Design web applications to help transportation agencies plan for sea level rise.
- Assist state officials in equitably distributing millions of dollars in park funds.
Our team
We are data analysts, cartographers, designers, developers, and project managers. We develop data-driven maps, analyses, and reporting tools for a wide range of clients.
Team members collaborate across disciplines to help clients understand what they need to achieve their goals. Then we use the best available technologies to deliver beautiful, reliable, and easy-to-use data, analyses, maps, and tools.
GreenInfo is based in Oakland, California, with remote team members spread across the United States.

Internship program
Our internship program provides students with key benchmarks to point to in their future career endeavors. Each intern produces a concrete product to start or enhance their GIS portfolio. We offer this paid program to students, and particularly encourage students who identify as BIPOC to apply. GreenInfo devotes funds, staff time, and mentorship to the program. We are also grateful to the donors that made this program possible.
