About the Company
Traverse Analytics Inc. (“Traverse Analytics”) is
a Calgary-based emergency management intelligence company, modernizing how communities and organizations prepare for disasters. Our products and services help organizations effectively understand and prepare for the impacts of climate-related hazards – either as a means of preserving life, protecting property, mitigating risk, and/or ensuring profitable conditions for business continuity.
Founded in September 2024, Traverse Analytics has developed an industry-leading cloud-based, collective resilience platform. These
pre-disaster solutions are delivered through a powerful blend of predictive modelling and expert advisory services. We provide extreme-weather impact forecasting, operational readiness support, targeted resource allocation, digital risk visualization, and end-to-end emergency management programs. We make risk understandable, collaboration seamless, and resilience achievable.
History
Founded by Amber Rushton, an expert in emergency management and public safety, Traverse Analytics emerged from firsthand experiences in disaster response and a recognition of the need for proactive risk management tools. The company’s inception was driven by the observed gaps in data collection and analysis, particularly in Indigenous communities and municipalities reliant on aging infrastructure. Traverse Analytics aims to bridge these gaps by providing actionable insights that promote life safety and resilience.
Mission Statement
Our mission is to strengthen community resilience by uniting people, data, and technology through accessible digital literacy and expert advisory services. We blend human experience with academic insight, integrating predictive analytics with social vulnerability and behavioral data to illuminate risk and empower informed decision-making.
Vision Statement
We believe in empowering communities and corporations to traverse evolving risk landscapes, provoke data-infused decisions, and prescribe enriched action. Our work centers on preserving lands, cultures, and critical infrastructure, promoting life safety, and fostering resilience practices
