Natural Forest Monitoring
Recent advances in satellite imagery acquisition enables accurate monitoring of traditionally challenging ecosystems. Utilisation of high temporal and multi-spectral resolution imagery allows, for the first time, near real time ecosystem monitoring. Simply put, this means that new satellites allow us to see what hasn’t been seen before by gathering daily imagery of the earths land mass.
Conservation Monitoring
With the aim of conservation. Swift Geospatial has designed and implemented an online portal capable of providing proactive ecosystem monitoring solutions with a focus on natural forestry conservation. This includes:
- Protection
- Rehabilitation
- Operational Management
The monitoring results can be generated and delivered at a frequency that suits the projects requirements. This can be quarterly, monthly, weekly or even now daily. With dynamic cloud-based processing, our solutions can scale from one compartment to an entire forest area covering many thousands of square kilometres.
