Neftaly | Estimating Forest Carbon Flux Using Satellite-Based Remote Sensing
Tracking the Pulse of Forests to Power Climate Solutions
Forests absorb and release carbon as part of a dynamic, living system. These carbon fluxes—the movement of carbon between the land, atmosphere, and biomass—are vital to understanding the role of forests in global climate regulation. But tracking carbon exchange across vast and diverse forest landscapes requires tools that are scalable, accurate, and consistent.
Neftaly applies advanced satellite-based remote sensing to monitor and estimate forest carbon fluxes across regions and time. By turning satellite data into actionable carbon intelligence, we help governments, conservation organizations, and climate programs measure ecosystem performance, forecast emissions, and design more effective mitigation strategies.

What Is Forest Carbon Flux?
Forest carbon flux refers to the net balance between carbon sequestration (through growth and photosynthesis) and carbon release (through deforestation, degradation, decomposition, or fire). Accurate measurement of these processes is essential to:
Assess forest contributions to carbon neutrality
Monitor REDD+ commitments and climate goals
Forecast risks from land use change or disturbance
Quantify benefits from forest restoration or protection

How Neftaly Measures Carbon Flux from Space
???? Multispectral and Thermal Satellite Data
We use platforms like Sentinel-2, MODIS, Landsat, and GEDI LiDAR to observe changes in forest structure, vegetation indices, canopy moisture, and biomass—critical inputs for estimating carbon flux.
???? Time-Series Flux Modeling
Neftaly applies remote sensing time-series analysis to detect seasonal and long-term carbon changes in forest systems, capturing both carbon uptake and release patterns.
???? Integration with Ecosystem Models
We combine satellite-derived data with ecological and process-based models (e.g., CASA, InVEST, Biome-BGC) to simulate carbon cycling across diverse forest types and climatic zones.
???? Machine Learning and Data Assimilation
Our AI-powered models improve flux estimation by learning from ground truth data, forest inventories, and atmospheric CO₂ observations.
???? Spatial and Temporal Carbon Flux Maps
Delivering high-resolution outputs for use in policy reports, conservation planning, carbon accounting, and environmental assessments.
