Flash Forest – Reforestation Drone

With automation and more efficient machines, reforestation is taking place at a high rate. However, reforestation is still largely done manually. Efficient restoration methods are critical to reverse the unsustainable rates of deforestation. Therefore, startups are developing solutions that use drones and robots to automate tree planting.

Flash Forest is a Canadian startup that uses drones to automate reforestation. In addition to drone technology, the startup’s solution integrates aerial mapping software, pneumatics, and automation. The solution uses multispectral mapping to choose ideal planting sites, as well as provide valuable follow-up data. The startup works alongside local groups, agencies, and scientists to speed up the reforestation process.

Treevia – Forest Monitoring

Monitoring the growth of a forest is generally a risky and labor-intensive business. Manually, it requires dozens of workers and puts them at risk of falls or attacks from animals. Forestry tech startups are exploring the use of the Internet of Things (IoT) and satellite imagery to automate monitoring. Upon installation, these devices transmit data daily, providing granular insights on tree health.

Brazilian startup Treevia develops tech-based solutions for forest monitoring and measurement. The startup leverages IoT-enabled devices, such as dendrometers and concentrators, to make forest management efficient. The Smartforest platform integrates manual and automated data to provide visibility into the forest status. The startup provides services for forest operation, forestry research, as well as to track profitability in forest investments.

Upstream Tech – Landscape Conservation

Natural landscapes are critical to protecting the wildlife they harbor. Landscape conservation balances nature conservation with economic activities to efficiently manage a landscape and takes a more holistic approach instead of conserving one site at a time. Conservation startups are working on solutions that capture large amounts of data for landscape conservation.

Upstream Tech is a US-based startup that provides solutions for landscape conservation. Lens, the startup’s platform, provides easy access to satellite imagery of even large or remote properties, eliminating the need for field visits. The solution maintains the customers’ entire portfolio of properties, detects violations, and automatically generates compliance and monitoring documentation. By comparing changes before and after an intervention, the platform also quantifies the success of restoration efforts.

Ecosphere+ – Nature-Based Solutions

Companies are increasingly seeking to reduce their carbon emissions, either for regulatory reasons and compliance or to add value to their customers. This usually happens with the adoption of sustainable alternatives in products and processes. In addition, carbon offsetting helps startups and companies reduce carbon emissions to compensate for emissions made in their operations. Conservation startups offer nature-based solutions that help businesses reduce emissions while conserving forests globally.

British startup Ecosphere+ offers climate solutions to help businesses make their processes sustainable. The startup’s portfolio includes forest carbon projects, forest conservation, and restoration projects around the world. The startup uses its nature-based carbon credits to help companies achieve their climate and sustainability targets. For instance, it helps logistics companies make their supply chains deforestation-free.

Regen Farmer – Regenerative Agroforestry

Farming and forest conservation often seem to be competing interests. Regenerative agroforestry combines the two, helping in forest restoration. By providing shelter to a greater range of species, the approach supports and strengthens biodiversity. Unlike monoculture, regenerative agroforestry also makes the landscape more resilient to environmental extremes.

Regen Farmer is a Danish startup that provides services for regenerative agroforestry. The startup’s platform, RegenWorks, uses analytics for agroforestry planning. The platform generates context-specific agroforestry designs and plans to provide methods suited for a particular land. The solution also features digital logging, financial budgeting, and crop planning.
