Project developers
Are you a project developer?
Tree Counter to strengthen partnerships with companies, organizations, and restoration project developers:
For the developing world’s governments, project developers and small farmers we are the eye in the sky.
Tree Counter emerges as an invaluable ally for companies, organizations, and restoration project developers, to unveil, quantify and monitor nature-based solutions in the support of sustainable landscapes and biodiversity conservation. By offering advanced tree-level and ecosystem-level data analytics (such as tree count, tree cover, tree-level biomass and carbon stock, and equivalent carbon credits) derived from various data sources — ranging from high and very high-resolution aerial and satellite images, optical and LiDAR data images from drones — Tree Counter propels these stakeholders towards data-driven decision-making, impactful strategies, and successful restoration projects development and maintenance.
Precision insights for effective strategies:
Tree Counter offers companies and organizations with particular interest in landscape restoration the power of tree-level precision insights, through transforming aerial and satellite image data into actionable and analysis-ready analytics. Whether it’s assessing tree count, measuring tree and forest cover, or estimating tree-level biomass and carbon stocks, or carbons sinks and their equivalent carbon credits, Tree Counter’s capabilities become a strategic compass guiding these entities towards optimal solutions.
Tailored approaches for success:
We recognise the challenge that project developers often encounter, of orchestrating large-scale endeavors that require tailor-made strategies. This is the reason why we have equipped the Tree Counter with a breadth of AI capabilities to go beyond the tree counting and inventorying and delves into the composition and health of tree populations. This information is a blueprint for devising restoration plans that align with the unique characteristics of each area. Companies and restoration projects developers can leverage these insights to ensure their initiatives yield maximum impact and lasting results.
Data-driven impact assessment and measurement:
With Tree Counter’s analytics, companies and restoration projects developer gain the ability to track their progress with scientific rigor. Tree planting initiatives can be measured in terms of tree count, and changes in woody biomass and carbon stock can be measured and quantified. This data-driven approach is not only a testament to accountability but also a tool for building credibility and support among stakeholders and the public.
Tree Counter to enhancing public-private partnerships:
Tree Counter fosters a harmonious relationship between private enterprises, organizations, and governments by providing a common language — the language of data. Governments can rely on the accuracy of Tree Counter’s analytics to validate the impact of private-led restoration projects. This synergy amplifies the scope and success of public-private partnerships, creating a collective force for positive change.
Unlocking a Greener Future: Tree Counter’s Legacy
Tree Counter’s reach extends beyond its technological prowess—it extends to the tangible impact it has on our planet. As companies, organizations, and restoration project developers harness the insights provided by Tree Counter’s analytics, they contribute to a worldwide movement towards restoring ecosystems, conserving biodiversity, and mitigating climate change. With each image processed and every data point analyzed, Tree Counter leaves a lasting imprint of positive change on landscapes across the globe.
Bext360’s blockchain technology can calculate individual tree carbon sequestration and trace carbon credit ownership
Individual Tree Tracking
Ground-Truthing
Auditing
Blockchain ensures that carbon credits are tracked and retired to a single consumer by creating an immutable and transparent ledger that records all transactions
Use Case 1: Individual Tree Tracking
Plant Tree & Record in App
- Tree is planted and each tree planting event is recorded as a transaction in mobile app
- Secure, immutable blockchain record of each tree is created
Evaluate Individual Tree
- Individual tree record is updated with Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) and tree health status
- Farmer takes photo for proof point, verified with geolocation
Calculate Carbon Sequestered
- Diameter, height, tree species, and location are used to calculate biomass and quantity of carbon sequestered
Verify & Issue Carbon Credits
- Tree is planted and each tree planting event is recorded as a transaction in mobile app
- Secure, immutable blockchain record of each tree is created
Retire Credit to Consumer
- Tree is planted and each tree planting event is recorded as a transaction in mobile app
- Secure, immutable blockchain record of each tree is created
Use Case 2: Ground-Truthing
Capture Satellite Imagery
- Satellite images of parcels are captured by satellite partner
Analyze Land
- AI technology is used to count number of trees and calculate estimated carbon sequestered
Conduct GroundTruthing
- Data such as diameter, height, species, and location of individual trees are collected using Bext360 mobile app
Verify Carbon Credits
- Tree biomass is calculated to verify carbon sequestration estimations
- Carbon credit is verified
Retire Credit to Consumer
- Unique record of each transaction of the carbon credit is tracked using blockchain
- Carbon credit is retired to final consumer
Sampling Area
Sample ground-truthing involves measuring and analyzing a representative portion of an area’s trees to estimate the carbon sequestered for the entire area through extrapolation
Use Case 2: Ground-Truthing
Identify existing project
- Existing carbon offset project requiring auditing to confirm carbon sequestration values is identified
Determine Auditable Area
- Subset of carbon offset project area is identified to conduct ground truthing at the individual tree-level
Conduct GroundTruthing
- Data such as diameter, height, species, and location of individual trees are collected using Bext360 mobile app
Provide Verification
- Tree biomass is calculated to verify carbon sequestration estimations
- Carbon credit is verified
