Boosting Boosterra’s Transparency and Efficiency in Biodiversity Monitoring
Boosterra is a nature finance company focused on restoring and conserving biodiversity through biodiversity credits. Their mission is to simplify the process of acquiring biodiversity credits, helping companies support environmental projects with ease. Boostera partners with nature conservation projects and currently collaborates with organizations like Savimbo, Wilderlands, and Terrasos to offer biodiversity credits aligned with companies’ value chain impact profile.
On the emerging market of biodiversity credits trust and transparency became top concerns for companies willing to invest. Clients needed confidence that the projects they were backing were legitimate and delivering real impact.
The problem? Demonstrating this clearly and consistently was tough. Biodiversity assessments on the ground, while accurate and often rich in data, are carried out in various frequency, using different monitoring methods, and providing data that is difficult to compare across projects - leaving gaps in monitoring. Companies wanted a near-real-time view to ensure their investment decision is based on up-to-date information, and that transparency can be ensured continuously over time.
Boosterra needed a solution to provide this ongoing transparency—with up-to-date data on land cover, risk factors, enriched with reportable indicators—while being automated, easy to understand, and scalable to build that trust.
To address the challenges of transparency and near-real-time monitoring, Boosterra partnered with Orbify, a leader in satellite data analytics. Orbify's customer-centric platform enables Boosterra to provide clients with near-real-time insights into the biodiversity projects they invest in. By leveraging Orbify’s satellite technology, Boosterra can now offer a comprehensive view of project progress, delivering data that ensures transparency and confidence.
Boosterra turned to Orbify for a customer-centric solution, utilizing Orbify’s satellite data analytics to provide clients with near-real-time visibility into the biodiversity projects they are supporting. With Orbify’s advanced technology, Boosterra can now offer increased transparency on land cover changes over time, offering high-level insights into whether projects are progressing as expected.
The key data that helps Boosterra’s clients evaluate these projects includes:
One of the key stregths of Orbify’s solution is its independent, data-driven perspective. This objectivity builds trust among Boosterra’s stakeholders, who value the impartial insights that geospatial data provides. Geospatial analytics remain are the most efficient and scalable method for monitoring project outcomes with near-real-time data.
Orbify also offered Boosterra ready-to-use dashboards that could be customized for each project, making it easy to integrate satellite data into their reports. The platform’s flexibility allowed Boosterra to automate much of the monitoring process, reducing the need for manual data checks. Monthly dashboard updates ensured reliable, consistent information without requiring daily intervention, freeing up Boosterra’s team to focus on broader priorities while continuing to deliver timely updates to their clients.
Boosterra’s partnership with Orbify is just the beginning. By harnessing Orbify’s satellite data analytics, Boosterra offers clients near-real-time transparency into their biodiversity projects, giving them confidence in the progress and impact of their investments.
As Boostera expands, Orbify will continue to be a key player in helping them build trust, scale operations, and deliver on their environmental goals.
Partnering with Orbify has been an excellent choice for Boosterra. I can't praise the team enough for their eagerness to ensure customer success. While one doesn’t need much support due to Orbify’s easy-to-configure, flexible, and reliable system, the assistance during those early learning steps — and at later quick questions — was invaluable. Orbify innovates and evolves with their customer considering their feedback and needs. They’ve been a trusted partner in our innovation journey for biodiversity conservation and restoration.
