Biomass & Carbon Estimation

Turning Forest Structure into Verified Climate Value

Overview

Understanding the biomass and carbon stock of a forest isn’t just important for ecological monitoring — it’s essential for carbon markets, REDD+ programs, and sustainable land management.

At Cosmo Technologies, we combine drone-mounted LiDAR, multispectral imaging, and species-specific AI models to generate accurate Above Ground Biomass (AGB) and carbon estimates — at scale and with scientific rigor.

Our outputs align with IPCC Tier II & III methodologies, providing spatially explicit biomass and carbon maps ready for use in MRV, climate finance, and carbon offset projects.

What We Measure

Above Ground Biomass (AGB)
using tree height, crown width, and species-specific allometry
Carbon Stock (tCO₂e/ha)

with customizable emission factors

Biomass Distribution Heatmaps

early detection and density analysis

Change Detection

for pre- and post-harvest or reforestation tracking

Deliverables

Total and per-hectare biomass & carbon stock
GeoTIFF raster layers and vector boundaries
Allometric assumptions and accuracy summary
MRV-ready summary reports (PDF/Excel)
Optional third-party validation support (Gold Standard, Verra, etc.)

Use Cases

REDD+ project baselining and credit issuance
Plantation carbon stock evaluation
Forest restoration and growth tracking
Wildlife corridor biomass impact assessments
Climate investment monitoring
