The Healthy River Ecosystem AssessmenT System (THREATS™)

The Healthy River Ecosystem AssessmenT System (THREATS™) – is an Internet platform for spatial-temporal analytics focusing on hydrological, water quality, air quality, climate and anthropogenic processes.

THREATS™ hosts over a hundred datasets, as well as accessing third party APIs to call dynamic datasets including from the Water Survey of Canada, DataStream, Provincial Databases and Environment and Climate Change Canada. The combination of data and science - based analysis modules makes it "fast and easy" to access and visualize data, calculate statistical indicators or access predictive models also built into the web platform. Visualization includes interactive mapping, charts and statistics.

Current (proprietary) analysis modules and related data (involving CA university research teams) include:

Robust and user interactive water quality analyses, statistics and water forensic analytical tools;
Water hazards, hydrometric stations and regulated permit to take water or water taking license databases;
Synthetic hydrographs and real-time (flood and drought) flow prediction (30 day maximum) analytics;
Spatial analysis for calculating geometric and attribute characteristics within a region of interest;
Pipeline incidents trends analysis for sensitive land designations;
Unique Indigenous flow regime and navigability TK application tool (incl. Peace - Athabasca Delta);
Global Land Data Assimilation System – place based climate analysis system for "what if" scenarios;
"CANWET Powered by SWAT" – watershed model calibration and visualization engine to assess land use change impacts and effectiveness of site level mitigation & source water protection scenario analyses;
Air quality analysis and statistics;
Travel time calculator for large river basins (e.g. North Saskatchewan, Peace - Athabasca in Western CA);
Watershed delineation and flow path trace tool; and,
Integrated Metabase business intelligence tool lets users ask “questions” of the database and build dashboards.

GREENLAND customizes the platform to include data and tool sets that address specific requirements and add to baseline offerings that are already operational.

We use a Software as a Service business model where THREATS™ is a vehicle for delivery of I.T. driven civil engineering and specialty environmental services.

THREATS™ contains a wide range of complementing datasets that assist in source water protection, watershed planning, new community, cumulative impact assessment and environmental investigations.

For more information about THREATS™, licensing details or participating in a future webinar demonstration, please contact Greenland.THREATS@grnland.com.

We would also welcome opportunities to further develop THREATS™ for specific client needs and with other teams that have complimentary information technology services.

On behalf of the Town of The Blue Mountains, we would like to thank you and your organization for your specialized technical support in a peer review capacity over the past four years… Your team not only provided timely review of all drainage related features of development applications but introduced updated municipal design criteria addressing changing climatic conditions. By unraveling the weather factors that impact snow melt potential, your team has helped the Town better understand how to be proactive in developing sustainable infrastructure.

Your team’s support assisted in keeping Town’s development projects moving forward efficiently. In addition to this, the review and introduction of updated municipal design criteria and construction standards addressing changing climatic conditions, continues to ensure the Town of The Blue Mountains fulfills its mandate for sustainable development.
