Our Objectives
10.000+
buildings publicly featured in the Open Building Data Platform
1.000+
advanced, high-definition life cycle assessments with reduction measures defined
100 Mt
Mt of CO2e emission reductions unlocked through effective WLC policy support
Our Approach
Global cooperation & inclusion
We facilitate global cooperation for establishing life cycle data for diverse regions to create comprehensive global buildings datasets, with special attention for including partners in the Global South.
Open data & development
We trust in the power of open science and open data to help democratize climate action. Open-source development and coordinated, open data protocols drive GBDI’s technical ecosystem.
Customization & Scalability
We offer open interfaces, scalable infrastructures and custom integrations. With a focus on resource use and embodied emissions in building structure, our formats and platform support comprehensive whole building life cycle assessments.
