Embracing a low-carbon future for forests

As the world moves toward a low-carbon future, leaders are asking what part forests play in carbon sequestration. Experts are devising preliminary models for cap and trade markets. Executives are looking for solutions to reduce their organisations' operational carbon footprints. Interactive location-based reports and GIS dashboards are helping key stakeholders across departments and organisations answer critical questions about carbon stock analysis and support compliance activities.

  • Determine project site viability

    Consider optimal areas for carbon sequestration projects and how they overlap with managed forest lands. Use remote sensing and field data collection to evaluate, promote, and share prospective project sites.

  • Visualise patterns and trends

    Model spatial and temporal changes to forest carbon stocks over broad areas. Support operational activities and compliance with specialised reports and dashboards for various stakeholders.

  • Prepare for the future

    Predict how forest carbon stock investments will change in the future, given the dynamics of the increasing demand, climate change, and forest ecosystem insecurity. Analyse project options and risks with interactive visual tools that enhance communication with stakeholders.
