โป๏ธ Up next is the Brazilian Bioverse Labs, which uses satellite & drone imagery paired with machine learning to access data that enhance local communities' agricultural and energy practices.
In Northern Brazil, multispectral drone imagery and machine learning are utilized to track economically viable, non-timber species of trees. They seek to empower indigenous communities in the management, harvesting, and preservation of their natural resources.
They work with locals to create sustainable agro-forestry management plans and make their technology open source to maximize its reach and impact. They intend to expand to sustainable agriculture, invasive species detection, and monitoring urban environmental health.
