EIR

Urban intelligence for sustainability leaders.

We turn the surfaces you already own into measurable sustainability.

For groups that already lead on responsible tourism, the next frontier is the surface itself. EIRA identifies, measures and transforms the underused assets of an urban portfolio — rooftops first, then terraces, courtyards, façades and residual spaces — into measurable climate, social and environmental value. We turn sustainability leadership into something guests can see, teams can act on, and reporting frameworks can verify.

EIRA Core reads your portfolio. AIRE Studio turns it into visible sustainability.
What we do

From invisible assets to measurable impact.

An urban hotel portfolio holds far more sustainable surface than it realises: rooftops, terraces, courtyards, façades, plant decks and residual spaces, repeated across every property and destination. EIRA makes them visible, comparable and actionable.

IdentifyMeasureDefineDesignReport
We define

What can move, and where

Which surfaces across the portfolio can be transformed, where the opportunity is strongest, and what constraints stand in the way.

We measure

Impact, not intentions

The climate, water, biodiversity, carbon and guest-wellbeing value each intervention can deliver, expressed in numbers you can stand behind.

We support

Reporting that holds up

Evidence aligned with the frameworks you already report against, so a rooftop becomes a line in your sustainability story, not a slogan.

The platform

One platform. Two layers.

The intelligence layer

EIRA Core

Core reads every property through geospatial data, climate information, regulation, cadastral layers, satellite imagery, LiDAR and expert validation, producing structured intelligence for sustainability, impact, asset strategy and reporting — at single-asset and full-portfolio scale.

It answers: what is possible, where, under what conditions, and with what measurable value.

The design & impact layer

AIRE Studio

AIRE Studio translates Core's intelligence into concepts, rooftop and terrace interventions, technical coordination, sustainability narratives and measurable impact reports. It turns data into sustainability your guests can experience.

Core identifies the opportunity. AIRE makes it visible, usable and measurable.

Why it matters

Sustainability needs evidence, not slogans.

Leadership in responsible tourism is increasingly judged on evidence: climate adaptation, water, biodiversity, carbon reduction, guest wellbeing and resilience, reported against GRI, SASB, TCFD and the incoming CSRD. EIRA helps turn that commitment into measurable action on the assets you already operate.

Sustainability is not a separate function. It is a principle in every decision. EIRA gives that principle a surface to stand on.

EIRA Core · 01

The intelligence engine for sustainable urban assets.

EIRA Core is the analytical and algorithmic layer of EIRA. It identifies, measures and prioritises the underused assets of an urban portfolio — rooftops, terraces, courtyards, façades, residual spaces and entire collections of properties — by their potential for sustainability, resilience, climate adaptation and impact. It turns scattered information across many buildings into one structured set of decisions.

02

A multimodal view of the built environment.

A multimodal AI architecture that integrates geospatial, regulatory and climate data — validated by people — to read the built environment and support actionable decisions.

Urban data

Cadastre, building typologies, ownership patterns and asset information.

Geospatial data

Satellite imagery, orthophotos, LiDAR, geometry and surface conditions.

Regulatory data

Planning rules, zoning, protection constraints, permits and policy opportunities.

Climate & environmental data

Heat, shade, water, solar exposure, wind, biodiversity potential and microclimate.

Expert validation

Human-in-the-loop review from urban, architectural, technical and sustainability specialists.

Comparable context

Every prior scan and measured project sharpens the reading of the next asset.

03

From data to sustainability intelligence.

Core produces structured outputs that teams can act on and report from.

Asset viability maps

Where transformation is possible, conditional, or not recommended.

Regulatory signals

Clear interpretation of planning and permitting constraints.

Impact indicators

Water, heat, carbon, biodiversity, energy, comfort and social value.

Portfolio ranking

Which assets should move first, and why.

Reporting-ready outputs

Structured data that supports sustainability teams, internal dashboards, and reporting aligned with GRI, SASB, TCFD and CSRD — strengthening the rankings and disclosures you already lead on.

Dashboard & API

One connected layer where surfaces, decisions and metrics stay verifiable and easy to share.

04

Built for sustainability leaders.

EIRA Core supports any organisation that needs to prove the sustainability potential of its physical assets — and it is built first for those already setting the standard.

Hospitality portfolios

Turn rooftops and terraces across every property into visible sustainability and guest experience, with evidence that reinforces ESG rankings and disclosures (GRI · SASB · TCFD).

Real estate & infrastructure

Asset prioritisation, climate risk, value creation and cost-impact analysis.

Corporate campuses & HQs

Wellbeing, sustainability strategy and measurable environmental performance.

Cities & public agencies

District-scale resilience, nature-based infrastructure and policy alignment.

Funds & investors

Comparable intelligence across assets, locations and intervention types.

Operators & owners

A single reading that turns scattered properties into a prioritised, reportable plan.

05

Research-born. Continuously improving.

EIRA Core is not a static software layer. Every scan, pilot and measured intervention improves the intelligence system for future assets and comparable contexts. Our work connects applied AI, urban planning, architecture, regulatory intelligence, sustainability metrics and climate resilience.

Through our Chair in AI for the Built Environment (UdC · CITIC), EIRA operates as an applied case study — with research lines spanning urban resilience, regulatory intelligence, digital twins, generative design and the activation of underused urban surfaces.

Research is not a side activity for EIRA. It is part of the operating system.

AIRE Studio · 01

Design and impact for sustainable urban assets.

AIRE Studio is EIRA's applied design and impact layer. It translates the intelligence produced by EIRA Core into spatial concepts, landscape strategies, technical coordination, sustainability narratives and measurable impact frameworks.

EIRA Core identifies the opportunity. AIRE Studio makes it visible, usable and measurable.
02

An asset is not just a surface.

A roof is not a garden. It is climate and social infrastructure. A terrace is not just a view. A courtyard is not just a void. Across an urban hotel portfolio, each surface can become part of the building's climate, social and environmental infrastructure — with rooftops as the first proof point and the most visible to guests.

Climate surfaces

Temperature, shade and microclimate that work for the building, the guest and the street.

Water & biodiversity

Retention, habitat and species that turn surfaces into living systems.

Wellbeing spaces

Rooftops and terraces guests actually want to be in — and remember.

Social & cultural infrastructure

Use, encounter and meaning, woven into the destination.

Visible sustainability

Projects that can be seen, communicated and stood behind in every report.

Measurable impact assets

Outcomes tracked over time, ready for the frameworks you report against.

03

A modular path from diagnosis to reporting.

Asset Scan

Potential, risks, constraints, typology and a clear go / no-go.

Concept Pack

Spatial concept, materiality, use, atmosphere, sustainability narrative and estimated impact.

Portfolio Scan

Asset map, ranking, cost-impact matrix, quick wins and pilot shortlist.

Direction + Reporting

Technical coordination, monitoring and annual sustainability / impact reporting.

For rooftops, this becomes the Living Roofs offer, in partnership with Paisajes Prestados. For other urban assets, the same method adapts to courtyards, façades, residual spaces, campuses or public–private portfolios.

04
