Space4Good is an innovative social enterprise utilising space technology for social and environmental good. Using remote sensing, geographic information services and artificial intelligence, we map, analyse and model complex ecosystems and support leading organisations and institutions on topics such as: nature base solution monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) such as biomass assessments for bio-based carbon markets; environmental crime detection and prediction; agroforestry monitoring and management; smart agriculture pest and disease early warning systems; humanitarian aid and post conflict assessments; air pollution monitoring; and sustainable urban development. By doing so we help impact makers on the ground to make more informed decisions, improve operational efficiency, create data-driven transparency and unlock new revenue sources. We are a growing team of impact-driven astropreneurs pushing the boundaries of geospatial innovation together with amazing multinationals, NGOs, universities and like-minded social startups like The World Bank, Rabobank, Arsari Enviro Industri, Amnesty International, Red Cross and Ecosia.
