We hear a lot about transparency when discussing nature-based solutions (NbS), but what does it mean in practice?
Join us for our Transparency in Practice webinar together with Planet, where we will be discussing the integration of NICFI satellite data into explorer.land forest cover time series.
We will present NICFI’s satellite data program and Planet’s high-resolution, analysis-ready mosaics of the world’s tropics. We will show you how all this works in explorer.land and how you can use the time series to get transparent information about nature-based projects.
We will also demonstrate how you can switch on additional data sets while running the time series for a more comprehensive interpretation of land use cover and change.
We will round it off with examples and tips for putting it all into practice for transparency and engagement with stakeholders.
About the NICFI Satellite Data Program
Through Norway’s International Climate & Forests Initiative (NICFI) Satellite Data Program, users can access Planet’s high-resolution, analysis-ready mosaics of the world’s tropics in order to help reduce and reverse the loss of tropical forests, combat climate change, conserve biodiversity, and facilitate sustainable development.
Planet provides daily satellite data that helps businesses, governments, researchers, and journalists understand the physical world and take action.
Explorer.land is a map-based platform and tool for restoration and conservation initiatives to display, demonstrate, and communicate impact transparently.
