New Report Reveals Wildfire Is Not Just A Public Lands Issue
SIG co-developed software to remotely monitor gold mining activity in Colombia. Illegal mining is a driver of deforestation and this project aims to empower authorities to respond quickly and appropriately. CoMiMo, which is available for desktop in both English and Spanish, uses satellite imagery and artificial intelligence to identify threatened areas.
Ecosystem Services Valuation for Hawaii’s Largest Private Landowner
SIG collaborated with Hawaii’s largest private landowner to integrate an ecosystem services framework into land management planning. We developed a custom ecosystem service typology, conducted extensive literature reviews, held stakeholder workshops, mapped key landscapes, modeled connections between landscapes and beneficiaries, reviewed strategies for ecosystem markets, identified high-priority management strategies, and created indicators for landscape health and interventions.
