Synoptic Data PBC

Synoptic’s mission is to provide expanded access to environmental data in order to enhance public safety, improve the productivity of government agencies and commercial entities, and assist in research and educational initiatives to advance the understanding of Earth systems. Synoptic makes the exchange of environmental data for operational and research needs for business, government, and academia as efficient as possible.

Synoptic is essentially an environmental data hub.  We work with a growing number and array of data providers to help make their data accessible to many types of new data users who would otherwise not have access to this often critical data.  We provide a thin but critical layer of added value in both technical and contracting services.  Our goal is to be the largest and most significant service in our niche for the world. 

Synoptic is a Public Benefit Corp, meaning we are accountable to all stakeholders including data providers, data users, our employees, our communities, and the general public. We are committed to stakeholders’ needs.  Part of being a PBC is that we are a for-profit company: we expect to do well financially for our shareholders and employees as we are doing good for the world.  With cornerstone government and commercial contracts in place, Synoptic is already profitable and is investing those profits into accelerating growth.
