Geospatial analysis

Geospatial analysis

Assess carbon projects, inside and outside the project area, before, during and after project activities.

  • Developers

Applied geospatial analysis

Using carbon maps informed by spaceborne and airborne LiDAR, radar and multispectral imagery.

Validating maps in context with the most geographically extensive ground truth database for forest carbon.

Building targeted machine learning models to track ecosystem change, project effectiveness, and natural hazards in near real-time.

Satellite image of Earth. How does geospatial analysis support carbon ratings?
  • Project boundaries
  • Carbon stocks
  • Change detection
  • Causal analysis
  • Natural hazards

See where projects are located and understand their local context with hundreds of audited and reconstructed project boundaries.

Interactive tools

Assess carbon quality using interactive features on our platform:

  • Explore project boundaries to understand local context.

  • Monitor year on year forest cover and loss.

  • See active fire detections and burned areas with maps and charts.

  • Assess changes in aboveground carbon stocks.

  • Visualise how terrain affects project performance in 3D.

  • Understand the impact of drought, sea level rise, pests and disease.
