Geointelligence & LiDAR
Remote sensing, GIS and terrestrial LiDAR to map conversion, deforestation and high conservation values, and to inform certification and carbon decisions.
What we offer
Spatial evidence for decisions on the ground.
We combine satellite imagery, GIS and field LiDAR to give certification schemes, standards and project developers data they can rely on.
Land-use change & deforestation
Monitoring of forest conversion and deforestation with remote sensing time series.
HCV, HCS and intact forests
Identification of High Conservation Values, High Carbon Stocks and Intact Forest Landscapes (IFL).
Certification potential mapping
GIS estimates of eligible area and volume under certification rules, such as FSC's conversion policy.
Reversal analysis for climate projects
Spatial checks of carbon losses and land-use change within project areas.
Spatial inventories
GIS databases and maps that support management plans, audits and reporting.
Terrestrial LiDAR for MRV
Ground LiDAR and machine learning to measure trees and biomass for carbon MRV.
New technology · with Understory
Terrestrial LiDAR for MRV
Scan, model, document: a handheld rig with LiDAR, 360° cameras and GNSS is walked under the canopy, machine learning segments each tree and estimates biomass, and reports stay traceable to the raw scans. Pilots in Brazil, Peru and Mexico.
