Contribute
Built by one student, open to everyone.
UCIP is a solo, open project. If it is useful to you, here is how to make it better.
Star and share the code
UCIP is free and Apache 2.0 licensed. Stars help other people find open civic tooling. Send the dashboard to anyone working on urban heat, climate adaptation, or civic data.
Improve the data
Spotted a ward that looks wrong, or have access to better ward-level data than our public proxies? That is the single most valuable contribution. Corrections beat compliments.
Question the method
The methodology page states every weight, coefficient, and limitation openly. If a choice looks wrong, say so. Pointed methodology critique makes the tool more trustworthy.
Port it to another city
Every scored input is free, open, global data, so another city needs a ward boundary file and an Earth Engine project. No second city has been run end to end yet. If you want to try one, open an issue and say which.
