A SAR-based

SPACE-INTELLIGENCEManage supplier listing

A SAR-based (cloud-penetrating radar) canopy-disturbance event dataset at 10 m resolution across wet closed-canopy tropical forest and mangroves: monthly detection with a two-stage confidence pipeline (a disturbance is flagged unconfirmed after two satellite passes, confirmed after four) and every confirmed event timestamped to its month. It is explicitly tuned to detect the structural change optical systems miss - selective logging, road building and small-scale degradation that precede full clearing - and the company claims 26x higher disturbance sensitivity than open-source RADD alerts in a Gabon comparison, with detection about 6 months earlier. Delivered as a platform plus GeoTIFF rasters with quarterly confirmed mapping and quantification, inside a wider monitoring stack (GrowthTracker, FireTracker) and alongside a global screening dataset.

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Raster GeoTIFF disturbance layers with monthly timestamps, plus platform/vector access and quarterly confirmed mapping and quantification reports; sibling products in the same stack add growth/biomass and fire layers, and a global screening dataset supports portfolio-level queries
Volume: Monthly 10 m disturbance layers across the world's wet closed-canopy tropical forest and mangroves: order 10^11-10^12 pixels per month of monitored area at that resolution, compressed into a far smaller delivered set of disturbance event polygons and backscatter rasters. The proprietary, licensable part is the accumulated monthly event history with confirmation states, not the underlying open radar scenes.
Users: N/A - B2B subscription analytics product sold to carbon project developers, investors, commodity traders and conservation organisations rather than a registered-user platform. With about 45 staff and a first venture round of roughly US$1.4M, the client base is plausibly tens to low hundreds of institutional accounts.
History: 10 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active - product imagery and datasheet assets are dated 2026, the product family is expanding (DisturbanceTracker, GrowthTracker, FireTracker, a global screening dataset and a screening product), and the company is actively publishing benchmark comparisons against open-source alerts to win share.
Launched: ~2023-2025 for DisturbanceTracker as a commercial product - it is marketed into the voluntary carbon market's integrity crisis, its comparison baseline (RADD) only launched in 2022, and site assets are dated 2026; the company's own corporate record dates from about 2018
