Forest Health Monitoring and Deforestation Prevention
Client: A government environmental agency responsible for forest management and conservation
Challenge: The agency faced challenges in monitoring large and remote forest areas for illegal logging and forest degradation. Manual inspections were time-consuming, costly, and lacked real-time data, limiting their ability to respond to deforestation threats.
Solution: Clame deployed drones equipped with multispectral sensors to conduct aerial surveys of the forest canopy. The drone data was analyzed to detect changes in vegetation health, map areas at risk of deforestation, and track illegal logging activities in real time. Clame’s platform provided the agency with actionable insights and allowed them to take timely preventive measures.
Results:
- The agency reduced illegal logging incidents by 35% due to the rapid response enabled by real-time drone data.
- Forest health improved as early signs of degradation were detected and addressed, preserving over 5,000 hectares of forest land.
- Monitoring costs were reduced by 40%, as drones replaced the need for manned helicopters and ground patrols.
