About us

Orbital Stack was created by a multidisciplinary team at RWDI, the global leaders in understanding the complexities of how the localized environment and climate impacts large-scale structures—and vice versa.

Orbital Stack AI leverages RWDI’s urban wind-flow dataset, developed from decades of experience in wind engineering, air quality, structural design, sustainability, and weather forecasting to create this transformational technology that unlocks a world of possibilities for building designers.
