FOREST SCAN is a cost-effective tool that supports the early stages of blue carbon project development. It leverages open-source satellite data and machine learning to deliver critical environmental insights, such as historical deforestation rates and detailed land classifications for targeted regions.
This information helps communities of impact and practice evaluate and organize blue carbon projects by providing essential data during pre-feasibility and feasibility assessments. Ultimately, FOREST SCAN lays the groundwork for effective conservation efforts and paves the way for decentralized, large-scale tracking of regenerative forestry initiatives.
