is a monitoring and communication platform for forest protection and reforestation projects. By improving information management and communication about forest projects, the platform is helping the reforestation sector to grow around the world.

Forest projects are one of the , but gaps in monitoring and data collection mean many of these projects struggle with quality control, transparency, and credible reporting of impact. has years of experience consulting with forest projects and building map-based forest information systems that address these gaps. They recognized the need for better communication and monitoring tools across the entire field and created a scalable platform to help: .

The platform allows anyone, with or without GIS or programming expertise, to create rich web maps to inform stakeholders and financial supporters about planting activities and results. Managing information inside the platform also helps organizations to use their data to improve land management decisions.

"explorer.land helps me authentically and transparently communicate the to our donors. It has combined many of the goals we have for project communications into one easy-to-use platform."
- Carla Wessels, Partnerships & Communications,


To help users engage with project sites, explorer.land uses ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ GL for smooth camera movements and high performance on any device - desktop, tablet, or mobile - even when exploring large amounts of project data like high-resolution drone imagery.

explorer.land supports site selection and land management planning with thematic data layers like forest fragmentation status, priority ecoregions, and remote sensing for wildfire monitoring.

Positive impacts on wildlife and biodiversity is a major benefit of forest restoration and a major driver of donor support. Projects like one use explorer.land to share geolocated content like photos of tiger footprints and wildlife camera footage to demonstrate how the forest recovery is rebuilding habitat. Such content can be captured with the explorer.land or uploaded via the explorer.land backend.

Supporters of forest restoration projects can see where trees have been planted and their growth progress. The team uploads custom drone imagery to ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓÆµ Studio and stitches it together with high-quality satellite imagery to show the reforestation site before planting and after the trees have grown to create a powerful visual impact.

Organizations can embed their project maps into their own webpages thanks to the responsive design and scalability of the platform.

Today over 200 forestry and conservation projects across Latin America, Europe, Africa, and South-East-Asia are using explorer.land¡¯s interactive maps to share progress and build relationships with stakeholders at local, regional, and global levels.
