A LinkedIn post from Space Intelligence highlights growing attention to forest degradation as a key driver of net carbon loss and positions the company’s monitoring tools as a response to this issue. The post notes that a large share of carbon loss arises from degradation rather than large-scale deforestation, and suggests that many existing monitoring tools may not adequately capture small-scale selective logging.

According to the post, Space Intelligence’s DisturbanceTracker product is designed to provide monthly alerts on deforestation and degradation in mature forests using SAR technology, and operates alongside the company’s GrowthTracker tool. The system is described as an early warning mechanism that may help project developers and investors detect canopy loss earlier in carbon and REDD project areas.
The LinkedIn post also promotes a live 30‑minute product demonstration on May 14, focusing on project areas in Indonesia and Brazil and comparing DisturbanceTracker against open‑source alert systems. For investors, this emphasis on operational monitoring capabilities and targeted outreach to carbon‑market participants could indicate a strategic push to win share in voluntary carbon markets and forest monitoring contracts, potentially supporting future revenue growth if adoption scales.
