Case studies
Real projects, real problems solved. See how we help developers, investors, landowners and conservation organisations measure, manage and report on nature.

Biodiversity baselines across a utility-scale solar portfolio
We gave a global investor consistent biodiversity baselines across three solar farms, and a practical plan to deliver and evidence gains.

Critical habitat screening for a new port and 90 km rail corridor
We helped a mining developer understand its IFC PS6 critical habitat risks early, before field studies and lender due diligence.

Screening great apes for disease risk on an active mining permit
We helped a mining company improve its understanding of the health of the threatened great apes on its permit, without handling a single animal, and plan clearing works around them.

Biodiversity and carbon risk assessment for a new Special Economic Zone in Kenya
We showed ARISE IIP where its planned industrial zone near Lake Naivasha faces ecological, water and carbon risks, while there is still time to design around them.

An MRV-ready biodiversity baseline for a biodiversity credit project in Gabon
We gave Nature+ and Rougier a rigorous, repeatable baseline to underpin biodiversity credits, built on population estimates rather than simple species lists.

Proving the biodiversity value of a 50-year forest carbon project in Spain
We set a biodiversity baseline for Carbon2Nature's El Bostal restoration project and designed a leaner programme to track gains alongside carbon.

Measuring whether reforestation is bringing forest birds back in Borneo
We designed a bioacoustic baseline that lets Land Life compare its restoration sites with intact forest, and decide where to act next.

A species-level baseline for the Bog Hall Habitat Bank at Castle Howard
We went beyond habitat condition scores to record the birds, bats, mammals and soil life at the start of a 30-year habitat bank.

Turning a camera-trap survey into conservation priorities for Lumphat Wildlife Sanctuary
We turned NatureLife Cambodia's camera-trap survey into clear priorities for managing wildlife and strengthening future monitoring of endangered banteng.

Mapping eucalyptus plantation change across 47,000 hectares with satellite AI
We used radar and optical satellite imagery with machine learning to give a plantation operator year-on-year maps of its eucalyptus, despite persistent cloud cover.

Planning cost-effective wildlife monitoring for Nki National Park, Cameroon
We gave ZSL a field-ready, costed camera-trap design to track forest elephant recovery in one of Central Africa's most remote parks.

Estimating chimpanzee numbers for a bauxite mine in Guinea
When the planned survey method could not be used, we adapted the analysis and still delivered a defensible chimpanzee population estimate.

A whole-estate biodiversity baseline for a Scottish upland estate
We gave a Scottish estate a clear picture of its birds and mammals to guide management and evidence its commitment to nature.

Designing a national wildlife monitoring system for Gabon's protected areas
We gave The Nature Conservancy and Gabon's protected-area partners one harmonised, fully costed plan to monitor wildlife across 12 national parks and six study sites.

A landscape-scale biodiversity baseline to guide natural capital investment in Gabon
We surveyed 730,000 hectares of forest and savanna for Forest Lab, giving it the evidence it needs to plan land use and attract investment.

Turning raw camera-trap video into analysis-ready data with AI
We cleaned, identified and measured WCS camera-trap video from Central Africa, so its team could move straight to estimating wildlife density.

Do plantations support wildlife? Comparing plantation and conservation areas in Gabon
We gave PFM objective evidence of how its plantations affect large mammals compared with its conservation areas.
