give a sense of place and wonder.

WE ARE spending down
that value because we can’t

meaningfully
measure it.

Yet, The data exists to measure
and monitor the way we value
our planet.

The one thing required to realize
that potential value is a way to
organize the info.

THE TECHNOLOGY IS NOT NEW, IT’S
JUST NEVER BEEN BUILT FOR NATURE.

Our goal, to organize the world's information to make it universally accessible and useful.

Our goal, to organize Earth observation
to make it universally accessible and useful.

The Earth Index organizes data
within “stacks” of imagery
enabling powerful interactions…

... for experts and local decision
makers to expand their knowledge
outward, through space and time…

… to create solutions that matter,
locally and globally.

I know that many conservation efforts have failed in the past. Top-down programs fail to include communities, they fail to include Indigenous people that live in the local area. We won’t make those same mistakes.

Where has brush of a certain
variety built up around power lines
in California?
Does deforestation follow roads of
a certain variety built in the DRC?
What farms have similar cover cropping practices to a gold-standard farm in Central Portugal?
When and where was heavy
machinery operating on dump sites
in Southeast Asia?
THE FIRST USE CASE:

DUE DILLIGENCE FOR MAJOR
INVESTMENTS IN NATURAL
CAPITAL.

WE ARE ALREADY WORKING WITH INVESTORS.

HOW IT WORKS

WE BUILT A DEEP NETWORK TO
EXAMINE SATELLITE IMAGERY IN DETAIL
OVER SPACE, TIME AND SPECTRA.

We examine more data than can
be imagined to distill unique
information about each pixel,
and how it changed over time.

We then compare those findings
across a global catalog, sort
of like using the human genome
to find your third cousins.

THE CATALOG ALLOW US TO ASK
AND ANSWER PRECISE QUESTIONS.

we empower local decision
makers
to access the info
required to measure the value
of their natural capital.
