The Client

NetCarbon

Founded in 2022 and based in Bordeaux, NetCarbon fights global warming by monitoring and addressing the levels of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. Their objectives include using KPI dashboards to reduce carbon emissions and increasing CO2 sequestration through photosynthesis, enabling the ecosystem to store more carbon in biomass.

The Challenge

Turning complex geospatial data into actionable insights

NetCarbon handles extensive satellite data both at country and city level. They required a low-code solution capable of handling 10 terabytes of data from internal and external sources, allowing for efficient monitoring and understanding of this data. The ability for the team and their clients to efficiently create better insights was essential.

Results

Using Big Data to measure progress and set KPIs

Leveraging CARTO’s Location Intelligence platform, NetCarbon created a solution that creates KPI dashboards and computes indexes based on the health of vegetation, soil moisture, temperature, and more. The cloud-based solution allows their clients to visualize billions of data points and gain insights at speed with Spatial Indexes.
