Restore.
Imagine greener cities for tomorrow
One of the five greatest threats to biodiversity is the loss, fragmentation, and artificialization of natural ecosystems. Thus, environmental preservation and physical restoration are important levers of action for regaining biodiversity. Due to human behavior, more and more species are threatened. This need to change, and it can change through acquiring data and putting that knowledge into action
Get knowledge.
More and more citizens feel the need to have nature in their lives in order to feel good. It is now well known that a healthy urban ecosystem is a crucial element for healthier citizens, better air quality, and water quality.
Good management of urban spaces inevitably requires good knowledge of the trees present in the territory. This knowledge is now within the reach of all stakeholders thanks to our technologies for urban tree inventories.
A product : ecoTeka
Manage your urban forest.
With ecoTeka - an Open-Source platform for tree management - we leverage the power of OpenStreetMap, Mappilary, and Open Data to allow decision makers to improve their urban forestry practices.
To have the most comprehensive ecosystem data we use sources from satellite imagery (and plan to integrate LIDAR imaging) and analyse them with machine learning techniques. To improve the interoperability of the system we are teamed with the French government to build an open standard for tree data (data.gouv.fr). Finally, we plan to include ecosystem services calculations to inform the planning of decisions on urban ecosystems.
