As of today, Six Feet Up has had the privilege to work on 9 IMPACTFUL Projects™ — ranging from space exploration to lightning strike predictions, forest fire management, genetic engineering, battery energy storage, agriculture data accessibility, and carbon emissions reduction. We are well on our way to achieving (and surpassing) this goal.

  • Explore Space

    We managed data from NASA’s space probe, which flew by Pluto in 2015. Specifically, we created a Plone-powered portal to help migrate scientific data for NASA’s New Horizons scientists.

  • Predict Lightning Strikes

    Using Django and AWS, we helped FLASH Scientific Technology build an application that predicts the first strike of any thunderstorm with 99.6% accuracy and a 15- to 25-minute lead time.

  • Manage Forest Fires

    Using GeoDjango, we worked with a data science firm to map forest fire trajectory and build a website that would help emergency responders more effectively contain wildfires.

  • Improve Genetic Engineering

    We built a Python-based Angular/Electron application for a major life sciences company. The device is designed to improve genetic engineering workflows.

  • Optimize Battery Energy Storage

    We built a suite of Python applications designed to optimize operations for a major battery energy storage company that is mitigating the impacts of climate change.

  • Boost Free Press Access and Reach

    We upgraded a news nonprofit's Plone website and integrated its CMS with other Digital Asset Management software. The site makes it easier for journalists to work in countries where press freedom is restricted.

  • Streamline Big Data in Healthcare

    We helped a statewide health system rebuild its digital infrastructure and implement a new world-class big data pipeline that is easier to maintain and allows more focus on patient outcomes.

  • Transform Agricultural Data with AI

    We created a ChatGPT-like application to help advance agricultural practices (including challenges posed by climate change) and boost crop yields.

  • Reduce Carbon Emissions

    We migrated an application from Ruby on Rails to Python/Django. The app helps our client’s customers more accurately calculate their carbon footprint.
