Forest Inventory
3D-SAR Mission Data
3D-SAR Satellite Mission for Forest Insights
We are launching our 3D-SAR Satellite mission to create global accurate and up to date forest height data that has not been available before. This data will enable a number of services like accurate Carbon Stock Assessment, Forest Disturbances, Forest Inventory, Height Maps and other.
FOREST HEIGHT AND VOLUME MEASUREMENTS FROM SPACE, GLOBALLY
Our 3D-SAR passive receiver satellites will be flying in formation with Sentinel-1 which is a clever augmentation of existing Copernicus space infrastructure.
This will enable the Best known combination of:
- Global coverage – 12 to 36 days revisit
- High accuracy – direct height measurements with 90%+ confidence based on TanDEM-X
- Affordability
SEVICES ENABLED BY 3D-SAR SATELLITE MISSION
Best combination of high accuracy, global scalability and unit price in forest carbon stock estimation and forest management.
Carbon Stock Assessment
Accurate Carbon Stock Measurement from Space.
Forest Disturbances
Revisit frequency of 12 to 36 days enables consistent global monitoring.
Forest Inventory
Scalable and affordable solution for large-area Forest Inventory.
3D-SAR Data & Height Map
Combines High accuracy, Global Scalability and Affordable Unit Costs
Carbon Stock Assessment
Detect and monitor the carbon stock of your carbon investment.
High-accuracy remote sensing methods offer a cost-effective method to verify and monitor changes in carbon stock to increase the value of investments and avoid greenwashing claims.
Forest Disturbances
Identify disturbances and events in forests such as clearcutting and damaged forest areas.
Effectively monitor forest management activities and events without the need for physical on-site inspections. Near real-time forest disturbance monitoring helps to ensure compliance with European regulations such as EUDR and LULUCF reporting, all while maintaining reliable accuracy.
Forest Inventory
Detect and monitor the timber stock of forests.
High-accuracy remote sensing methods enable cost-effective assessment of forest parcel value and its change in time, enabling better decisions in forest management.
3D-SAR Data & Height Maps
Developing a passive receiver satellite constellation to enable the vertical dimension in Sentinel data.
Three-dimensional SAR data enables quantification of timber and carbon stock and its change with over 90% accuracy, enabling many high-value applications not available with existing mission data.
