ForestScope

Sustainable Forest Management through Geospatial AI.

Alpyne.ai was born from a realization: critical environmental decisions were being made with outdated data and tools. Our founders, a team of environmental scientists and AI engineers, saw mining companies struggling to monitor remote sites and regulators overwhelmed by data. 

In 2020, they came together to bridge this gap. The goal was clear – combine cutting-edge AI with geospatial data to make environmental compliance instantaneous and insightful.

Who it’s for (government forestry departments, conservation NGOs, timber industry).

What it does (cover tracking, hazard alerts, biodiversity & carbon insights).

Our Impact and Values

01

Land Use & GIS Decision Support

Plan and evaluate land use with rich spatial data.

ForestScope aggregates data on land ownership, zoning, and environmental constraints. Users can perform land-use planning scenarios – for example, identifying which areas are suitable for logging versus which should be conserved due to high ecological value (considering factors like slope, proximity to waterways, wildlife corridors). This GIS decision support ensures sustainable resource management aligned with regulations and community interests.

02

Forest Inventory & Health Monitoring

Keep a finger on the pulse of forest health.

Using satellite imagery and remote sensing, ForestScope continuously monitors forest cover and vegetation health. It can automatically detect deforestation or degradation events and quantify them (e.g., X hectares lost this month). It also helps manage data from field surveys – such as tree counts or biodiversity assessments – by providing a centralized database and mapping interface. Over time, AI models in ForestScope might even predict forest health trends or pest/disease outbreaks by analyzing patterns.

03

Wildfire Detection & Management

Respond to forest fires faster.

ForestScope connects to satellite thermal anomaly data (for early fire detection) and weather feeds to highlight high-risk zones. When a potential wildfire is detected, the system sends instant alerts with the location and size estimate. Fire management teams can use ForestScope’s maps to coordinate response – mapping safe access routes, nearby water sources, and communities at risk. Post-fire, the system can assess burn scars and assist in planning reforestation or recovery efforts.

04

Community Engagement & Participatory Management

Include local communities in forest stewardship.

For government or NGO users, ForestScope offers tools to integrate community-reported data. Via a mobile app (or simple web forms), local forest guardians or residents can report illegal activities, animal sightings, or other observations. These inputs appear on the ForestScope dashboard for validation and action. The system also produces easy-to-understand maps that can be shared in town hall meetings or with indigenous groups, ensuring transparency. (This feature aligns with the idea of community-based forest management in the PDF content.)

05

Supply Chain & Harvest Optimization

Smart timber harvesting with traceability.

For commercial forestry, ForestScope optimizes harvesting schedules by analyzing forest growth data and market conditions. It suggests which compartments of a forest are mature for harvest and which should be left for regeneration, balancing economic needs with ecological impact. Every log can be traced from stump to mill with geotagged records, aiding in certifications (like FSC – Forest Stewardship Council) and proving sustainable practices to customers and auditors.

06

Forest Inventory & Health Monitoring

Align forestry with biodiversity goals.

ForestScope includes habitat modeling tools that identify critical habitats for wildlife (using species data and environment variables). It helps managers avoid or mitigate impact on these areas. For conservation groups, it highlights regions of high conservation value or areas where wildlife corridors could be established. In essence, it ensures forest management decisions factor in protecting vulnerable species and ecosystems.

Protect & Profit

Achieve conservation and business goals simultaneously. With ForestScope, timber companies can optimize harvests to maximize yield without overcutting, ensuring forest resources for future generations and meeting certification standards.

Real-Time Vigilance

Never be blind to changes. From illegal logging to natural disasters, get immediate alerts and situational awareness, saving critical time in your response and potentially thousands of acres of forest.

Real-Time Vigilance

Measure what matters. ForestScope helps translate forest changes into climate impact – track carbon emissions from deforestation or gains from reforestation. This data supports ESG reporting and accessing climate finance (like carbon credits or sustainability-linked loans).

Forests are invaluable – manage them with intelligence. Contact us for a ForestScope demo and see how data-driven forestry can transform your operations and conservation impact.
