Traverse is a SSaaS (“S”imulation & “S”oftware as a Service) for project developers and engineers who develop and design earth scale infrastructure projects (e.g. roads, railways, power plants, water purification etc.). Our current focus is in utility scale renewable energy projects (i.e. project value > $10 million). We try to answer the question: where are the best places in the world to build the most profitable and environmentally friendly renewable energy projects?
The front-end product is an elegant web-based interface for industrial engineers capable of prospecting, design, and simulation of infrastructure projects at the terabyte scale. The back-end computer science surrounds computer vision, graph traversal, statistics, optimization topics and some machine learning.
