Our take
Nature-based assets are increasingly vital for decarbonising the economy, as they are the most efficient means of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, the lack of accessible, understandable, and trustworthy data hinders enterprises from investing in these assets at the necessary scale. This issue, along with regulatory changes like the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and the demand for supply chain transparency, is creating a positive tipping point that underscores the need for reliable nature-based data solutions.
Treefera is an AI-enabled data management platform that enhances transparency and accuracy in nature-based asset reporting. By integrating satellite, drone, and ground truth data with advanced AI algorithms, Treefera provides essential data products and workflows for continuous monitoring, assurance, and risk evaluation.

The platform consolidates extensive environmental and forestry data and integrates with client analytics through an API, ensuring seamless access to critical information. As a global enterprise with operations in the US, UK, Europe, LATAM, and Asia, Treefera is committed to making the true power of nature-based solutions visible to all.
