Upstream Tech

Upstream Tech builds software that accelerates the pace and scale of conservation, restoration, and renewable energy. The company offers two primary products: Lens, which enables remote monitoring and reporting of land use and land cover change using satellite imagery and machine learning, and HydroForecast, which provides industry-leading streamflow forecasts powered by machine learning for hydropower, utilities, and environmental management.

Not to be confused with Upstream Online (oil and gas news), Upstream Technologies (stormwater products), or generic 'upstream' in software development; this is the cleantech company building AI-powered tools for land and water management, founded in 2016.
