Neftaly | Remote Sensing for Evaluating Agroforestry Systems and Practices
Enhancing Agroforestry Monitoring Through Earth Observation
Agroforestry—integrating trees with crops and livestock—offers powerful solutions for sustainable land use, climate mitigation, biodiversity conservation, and rural livelihoods. Yet, monitoring the effectiveness and impact of agroforestry systems remains a challenge due to their spatial complexity and diversity. Neftaly applies advanced remote sensing technologies to evaluate agroforestry systems at scale, providing data-driven insights to optimize practices, measure outcomes, and inform policy.
What Neftaly Offers for Agroforestry Monitoring
???? Satellite and Drone-Based Mapping
We use high-resolution satellite imagery (e.g., Sentinel-2, PlanetScope) and drone data to map agroforestry layouts, tree cover, intercropping patterns, and canopy development over time.
???? Tree Density and Canopy Health Assessment
Neftaly analyzes vegetation indices (NDVI, SAVI, EVI) to assess tree growth, species vigor, and overall system productivity—tracking tree-crop interactions and vegetation resilience.
???? Biomass and Carbon Stock Estimation
Using LiDAR and radar-derived forest structure data, we estimate above-ground biomass and carbon sequestration rates in agroforestry plots—supporting carbon crediting and sustainability reporting.
???? Temporal Analysis and Impact Monitoring
We monitor seasonal and long-term changes in land productivity, vegetation cover, and land use intensity to evaluate the ecological and economic benefits of agroforestry practices.
???? Custom Dashboards for Farmers and Planners
Neftaly delivers actionable maps, reports, and dashboards that track agroforestry performance at plot, farm, or landscape scale.
Applications
Performance Evaluation of Agroforestry Projects
Quantify the success of agroforestry interventions based on tree survival, growth rates, and productivity.
Sustainable Agriculture and Land Management
Support landscape restoration and climate-smart agriculture through continuous spatial monitoring.
Carbon Project Monitoring
Track carbon sequestration from agroforestry systems for integration into voluntary or compliance carbon markets.
Policy and Incentive Program Validation
Provide evidence to inform payment-for-ecosystem services (PES), reforestation incentives, and sustainable land-use planning.
