Airbus provides satellite monitoring-based forestry and environment solutions to manage risks and support decisions through consistent insight about the environment. With its commitment to a more sustainable future, the company is involved in a number of initiatives including establishment of an REDD+ National Strategy (eg establishment of historical forest area changes, implement forest monitoring solution as a cornerstone of MRV systems); frequent, global and accurate forest monitoring to detect hot spots, and deforestation patches; access to customised dashboard, alerts, meaningful analytics to help make the right decision.
FORESTRY AND ENVIRONMENT
Forests are the ‘green lungs’ for the planet and fundamental for fight against climate change, critical for biodiversity conservation, source of formal and informal jobs, and source to meet the growing demand for bio-products. Yet the sector is being challenged by deforestation, dwindling forest cover, plant diseases, low productivity, amongst many other concerns. Our partners bring effective satellite-based forest monitoring, management, conservation and sustainable development of all types of forests. These solutions help address forest cover maintenance, REDD management, forest health, forest economies, land use regulation and allied issues.
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Planet supports forest owners and stakeholders at the forefront of innovation with remote sensing technologies and data analysis delivered by the world’s largest fleet of commercial satellites. With Planet’s high frequency, high-resolution satellite imagery, forest sector practitioners can automatically track forest harvest and clearing, monitor forest health, and enhance forest management practices.
LAND USE
Planet provides high-frequency insights across distributed forest assets. Planet’s satellite imaging and data help forest managers and timber operators optimize management practices to ensure productivity without compromising environmental stewardship or compliance with land use regulations.
TIMBER HARVESTING
Users can streamline and optimize timber harvest operations across the logging cycle with Planet. They can leverage Planet satellite solutions to define, monitor, and calculate tree harvest areas remotely; use Planet data and analysis to inform harvest planning, auditing, and inventory.
Benefits:
FOREST MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT
Forest owners and managers can manage the health of their forests with Planet’s timely data. With Planet, they can monitor distributed assets, and track the life cycle of their trees to improve forestry operations and proactively manage forest health. With continuous imaging, detect change as it happens. They can also respond to natural disasters, pests, and diseases in a timely manner.
Benefits:
VALIDATE REDD+ AND MRV
Environmentalists and forest conservators, owners, managers can improve REDD+ Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) with Planet. They can achieve accuracy, efficiency, and capacity gains in REDD+ MRV with Planet’s high resolution, broad coverage, and historical imagery archive.
Benefits:
TIMELY INDICATIONS OF ILLEGAL DEFORESTATION
Users can detect illegal deforestation and changes to Land Use with Planet. They can track and identify illegal deforestation and enforce permits and land use regulations with Planet’s high cadence, and global satellite imagery.
Benefits:
MDA provides a wide range of offerings for forest management, forest monitoring, and land-use change monitoring.
The company’s satellite data helps in monitoring land cover changes in production areas which is essential for efficient operational planning and minimizing illegal encroachment, further protecting high-value forests. MDA provides a near real-time Forest Alert Service that helps in forest change detection alerts.
MDA produces accurate (5.0 meters resolution) forestry change detection products by applying proprietary algorithms and visualization tools to stacks of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery collected from its RADARSAT-2 satellite. Through subscribing to MDA’s Forest Alert Service, users receive monthly or bi-annual reports on forest changes that include geospatial information showing the exact location and estimated size of changes. This information can be used to safely manage operations, comply with regulatory reporting requirements, and reduce risks to the environment.
MDA offerings also detect and map clear-cuts that help monitor forest cover change. It also helps detect selective logging.
