The partnership will leverage satellite data, AI, and remote sensing technologies to enhance the digital measurement, reporting, and verification of nature-based carbon projects.

This collaboration aims to integrate satellite analytics into Octopus's due diligence process, speeding up and improving the efficiency of investments in conservation and sustainable land management. The project not only supports Octopus’s natural capital strategy but also sets a precedent for broader market confidence and private investment in nature-based solutions, addressing the global nature funding gap.
