????️ Neftaly: Mapping Forest Ownership and Land Tenure via Remote Sensing
Clarifying Forest Rights from Space—Empowering Policy, Protection, and Equity
Clear and secure forest ownership and land tenure are foundational to sustainable forest management, climate action, indigenous rights, and land conflict prevention. Yet, in many regions, land records are incomplete, outdated, or contested—leaving forests vulnerable to illegal use and mismanagement.
Neftaly’s Remote Sensing for Forest Ownership and Land Tenure combines high-resolution satellite imagery with geospatial data analytics to map, monitor, and validate land boundaries, forest claims, and tenure arrangements—even in remote or legally ambiguous areas.

✅ What We Deliver
Neftaly offers tools and insights to support land governance and forest ownership mapping through:
????️ Satellite Mapping of Forest Parcels & Boundaries
???? Identification of Informal or Customary Land Use
???? Monitoring of Land Encroachment & Disputes
????️ Detection of Illegal Use in Privately Owned or Protected Areas
????️ Integration of Spatial Data with Government Land Registries
???? Support for Indigenous and Community Land Rights Documentation
???? Real-Time Monitoring of Land Tenure-Linked Forest Change

???? Why It Matters
???? For Governments & Land Agencies
Improve land governance, resolve disputes, and support formal land registration processes using verified spatial data.
????‍???? For Indigenous Peoples & Local Communities
Strengthen land claims with spatial evidence of traditional use and historical land occupancy, enabling legal recognition.
???? For Investors & Project Developers
Ensure that projects (e.g., REDD+, reforestation, infrastructure) are implemented on legitimately held land, avoiding tenure conflicts and reputational risk.
????️ For Conservation Organizations
Protect forests more effectively by understanding who owns and stewards the land, enabling targeted legal and conservation strategies.
