    Neftaly | Remote Sensing for Forest Carbon Monitoring in Peri-Urban Areas
    Bridging the Urban–Forest Divide with Data-Driven Carbon Insights
    Peri-urban forests—located on the fringes of expanding cities—are critical for climate resilience, air quality, biodiversity, and community well-being. Yet, they often face rapid land conversion, pollution, and degradation. Monitoring their carbon storage capacity is essential to integrating nature-based solutions into urban planning. Neftaly applies advanced remote sensing technologies to map, monitor, and quantify forest carbon dynamics in peri-urban environments, helping decision-makers balance development with sustainability.

    Why Monitor Forest Carbon in Peri-Urban Zones?
    ???? Urban Expansion Pressure: Forests near cities are at high risk of deforestation, fragmentation, and degradation.
    ???? Local Climate Benefits: These forests play a vital role in carbon sequestration, microclimate regulation, and flood mitigation.
    ???? Policy Integration: Reliable carbon data supports urban green infrastructure, climate action plans, and carbon offset programs.

    Neftaly’s Remote Sensing Approach
    ???? High-Resolution Satellite and Drone Imagery
    We use multispectral and LiDAR data from satellites (e.g. Sentinel-2, GEDI, PlanetScope) and drones to measure vegetation structure, canopy height, and biomass in dynamic peri-urban landscapes.
    ???? Above-Ground Biomass & Carbon Estimation
    Neftaly applies biomass models to estimate carbon stocks based on forest type, canopy density, and growth trends—tailored to mixed-use zones where forests coexist with agriculture and settlements.
    ???? Change Detection and Emission Mapping
    We detect forest loss, fragmentation, and degradation over time, quantifying associated carbon emissions from urban encroachment or land-use change.
    ???? Interactive Dashboards for Urban Forest Managers
    Get spatially explicit insights on carbon storage, losses, and trends around urban edges—integrated into GIS platforms or custom dashboards for city planners and environmental agencies.

    Applications
    Urban and Regional Planning
    Inform greenbelt preservation, urban expansion boundaries, and ecological corridors through data-driven carbon insights.
    Carbon Accounting and Offsets
    Quantify and validate peri-urban forest carbon stocks for local offset schemes or inclusion in national inventories.
    Community Forestry and Urban Greening Initiatives
    Monitor tree planting, regrowth, and carbon impacts in city-adjacent community forests and green projects.
    Climate Adaptation and Resilience Planning
    Prioritize forest conservation as part of urban heat island mitigation, flood control, and sustainable city strategies.
