LightBox Live Level Ups with Agadoni—Getting Started with LightBox Live

By Alan Agadoni, Senior Vice President, EDR^® at LightBox

Welcome to the future of environmental due diligence.

I couldn’t be more excited to introduce LightBox Live—our most powerful platform yet for environmental professionals (EPs). After decades in the field and years helping shape EDR’s evolution, I can say this without hesitation: LightBox Live is a giant leap forward for how EPs work, analyze, and deliver.

This blog series, LightBox Live Level Up, will spotlight key features and show you how to get the most from your experience—so you can level up your workflow and lead the charge into the next era of environmental due diligence.

A decade ago, Environmental Data Resources (EDR) transformed how environmental professionals viewed and used data. It was groundbreaking then—but let’s be honest: the world has changed. We’re in the age of Big Data, workflow automation, and AI. The pace is faster. The margin for error is smaller. And static reports just aren’t enough anymore.

That’s why we reimagined everything.

LightBox Live brings together all the tools, datasets, and insights you trust from EDR—but now in a connected, dynamic platform built for today’s challenges.

This isn’t just a redesign—it’s a reengineering of the environmental research process. With LightBox Live, you’ll find:

Streamlined design that makes navigation faster and more intuitive—because every second counts.
Enhanced imagery and interactive tools that turn data into decisions, instantly.
Smarter workflows to help you reduce friction, improve consistency, and deliver high-quality results under pressure.

Are you already a power user? You’ll appreciate the refined features and streamlined layouts—built to help you hit the ground running on Day 1.

New to LightBox Live or a die-hard PDF aficionado? No worries. It’s easy to learn, intuitive to use, and built to make your workflow faster from the start.

Coming Soon in This Series

Each post in this Level Up series will dig into features designed to make your day easier—starting with map upgrades, smarter search and filtering, and new data layers that give you an edge in every Phase I.
