This company provides global forest carbon data derived from direct satellite measurements of above-ground biomass. They offer historical and annual data products detailing biomass stock, change, and forest cover dynamics at high spatial resolution. This data enables organizations to accurately monitor and quantify carbon removals and emissions for carbon markets and supply chain compliance.

Problem
Quantifying above-ground biomass and monitoring carbon emissions in global forest ecosystems relies on traditional methods, which can be unreliable and lack the precision needed for effective conservation and investment decisions. The absence of accurate, spatially explicit data hinders the assessment and monitoring of forest carbon stocks, limiting the ability of organizations to confidently invest in forest conservation and restoration projects.
Solution
Chloris Geospatial provides satellite-based measurements to directly quantify above-ground biomass and monitor carbon emissions and removals across global forest ecosystems. By measuring above-ground biomass from space, Chloris offers a reliable method for quantifying carbon removals and emissions, providing pixel-level quantified uncertainty at 30m and 10m spatial resolution. The company's data products include above-ground biomass stock, above-ground biomass change, and forest cover, enabling users to track changes year over year. This technology empowers companies, governments, and civil society organizations to assess, monitor, and invest in forest conservation and restoration with confidence, facilitating the transition to net-zero and nature-positive economies.
Target Audience
The primary audience includes companies, governments, and civil society organizations involved in carbon markets, supply chain management, and forest conservation and restoration projects.
