Solution 03

Geospatial data, GeoAI and climate

Decisions on forests, water, crops and risk based on up-to-date spatial data.

The problem

Decisions about forests, water, crops and climate risk are made without up-to-date spatial data, or with data nobody can easily access.

What we deliver

Forest and biodiversity monitoring

Platforms showing land-cover change and alerts across the landscape.

Climate information and forecasting

Climate services for farmers, fishers and institutions.

Climate risk for finance

Climate-exposure diagnostics for lending and investment portfolios.

Remote sensing and AI

Satellite imagery analysis with machine-learning models.

FAQ

What people usually ask

What is GeoAI?

It is the use of artificial intelligence with geospatial data, such as satellite imagery and maps, to detect and analyse what is changing in a landscape.

What is satellite forest monitoring for?

It tracks changes in the forests of managed areas and provides up-to-date information for planning and reporting. ForesTracker, with FUNDECOR in Costa Rica, is one example.

What climate information can be integrated?

Forecasts, climatologies and hazard data, among others, depending on the decision to support. Centro Clima and Clima Pesca are regional examples.
