Portfolio
GreenInfo delivers user research, thoughtful design, and innovative technology. We create data, tools, and maps that are meaningful, accessible, usable, and impactful.
Highlighted Projects
Mapping to Make Monuments
Our work with Tribes and conservation advocates in California was an essential part of campaigns that led to the designation of two new national monuments: Sattitla Highlands and Chuckwalla.
Mapping Wildlife Crossings in San José
Greeninfo developed a series of maps for Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority to map wildlife crossings in the San Jose Area, specifically Coyote Valley which serves as a key habitat connector between coastal and inland habitats.
PerSquareMile data supports first park needs assessment in Los Angeles since 2009
In early 2025, the City of Los Angeles undertook its first Park Needs Assessment since 2009. GreenInfo joined the team to help determine where new parks would have the most impact. We developed the PerSquareMile tool with UCLA to select 36 locations where new parks would most benefit people who lack park access.

Powerbuilding with Maps
Prevention Institute’s People, Parks, and Power (P3) is the first national funding initiative in the U.S. to support powerbuilding by community-based organizations to reverse deep seated park and green space inequities in Black, Latino, and Indigenous communities across the country. GreenInfo Network was brought in to assist with our mapping expertise.
Putting 10,000 School Campuses on the Map
Schools should be safe spaces where kids can learn and thrive. Public health researchers have long studied the negative impacts of commercial tobacco sales and marketing near schools. But they were working from imprecise and often inaccurate maps until we created the California School Campus Database.
Reducing Wildfire in Marin County
Wildfire is a fact of life in California. In 2000, Marin County residents voted to fund a new agency, the Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority, to chart a path to a fire-resilient future. We helped them build a mapping and data program to track their progress.
Remaking a Major Guide to Redistricting
Every 10 years, the geographic boundaries that define our democracy are redrawn. It’s an obscure but very important process. And it can be done fairly — or not. Legal Scholar Justin Levitt is a nationally known expert on redistricting, and we helped create the online home of his All About Redistricting project.
Showcasing Important Migration Routes
Within New Jersey is Bobcat Alley, a 96,000 acre wildlife corridor managed by The Nature Conservancy New Jersey to assist in the recovery of the bobcat population. TNC NJ partnered with Greeninfo Network to create a set of maps whose purpose was to (1) promote Bobcat Alley and (2) to visually map the migration routes of bobcats within the area.
Updating Maps and Creating GIS Best Practices
Back in 2022, Marin Resource Conservation District (RCD) worked with GIN in developing and implementing a robust new GIS system. Over several months we did monthly training for ArcGIS Pro and data management. Collaboratively we consolidated and updated existing data into organized geodatabases.

Visual Design Presentation
GreenInfo has long been supported by Esri, the leading GIS publisher, and its conservation program which donates ArcGIS software used heavily by GreenInfo. Ever year, Esri holds a major User Conference with over 15,000 GIS users, featuring hundreds of workshops and other learning sessions. Based on discussions between GreenInfo and Esri at the 2013 conference about the quality of maps being exhibited by users, Esri underwrote the development of a three part presentation series for 2014, co-created by GreenInfo and Esri staff which has been exhibited between the years 2014 to 2018.
