Problem
Land managers, carbon auditors, and timber investors often lack timely, high‑resolution data on forest conditions, harvest activities, and environmental disturbances, making it difficult to verify claims, assess asset performance, and meet ESG reporting requirements.
Solution
Earthtrace combines satellite and aerial remote sensing with proprietary machine‑learning algorithms to generate wall‑to‑wall, pixel‑level information across entire nations. Their workflows ingest the latest passive and active Earth observation data, apply transparent GIS methodologies, and produce consistent datasets that capture forest extent, clear‑fell harvest history, thinning events, and environmental damage. The resulting insights are delivered in customizable GIS formats, enabling users to reconstruct forest management actions over decades and validate ownership or carbon‑offset claims with defensible evidence. By providing a national‑scale, high‑frequency view of forest assets, Earthtrace supports strategic benchmarking, due‑diligence, and sustainability reporting without the need for costly field surveys.
Target Audience
Primary customers are timberland owners, forest managers, carbon verification agencies, and ESG analysts who require accurate, auditable forest history and condition data for investment, compliance, and reporting purposes.
