Urban EcoMap provides urban communities with relevant data regarding the primary GHG contributors—transportation, waste, and energy. Building awareness, fostering a sense of community connection and responsibility, and providing actions for citizens to take will enable the reduction of GHG in cities. In addition, it will support decision-making for policymakers and business organizations, as well as for urban design, development and operations, and the research of urban, earth, and social scientists. Begun in fall 2008, the pilot project is a collaborative effort involving Cisco IBSG—the global strategic consulting arm of Cisco—and San Francisco’s Department of the Environment (SF Environment). The organizations are jointly applying an urban services platform approach toward which visionary cities and the ICT industry are moving. Urban EcoMap is a landmark innovation and a key element of the Connected Urban Development program’s Connected and Sustainable Cities framework. San Francisco is the first city worldwide to launch Urban EcoMap, introduced on May 21st 2009.
