Solutions
Two practices, one purpose: we develop nature-based credit projects from the ground up, and we build the data architecture that makes conservation measurable, verifiable, and investable.
Project Development
We partner with landowners and communities to develop, finance, and verify nature-based credit projects — from reforestation and soil carbon to forest conservation and grassland restoration.
Start a Project
01
ARR — Afforestation, Reforestation & Revegetation
Restoration starts with the right species in the right place. We design planting and natural regeneration programs for degraded and converted land — species selection, spatial layout, and long-term management matched to site ecology and local carbon models.
02
REDD+ Forest Conservation
Standing forests have value. We build the technical case for REDD+ — reference scenarios, additionality arguments, monitoring frameworks — and manage the methodology work through to registration.
03
Soil Carbon & Grassland Restoration
Soil carbon is undervalued because it’s hard to measure. We combine remote sensing with targeted field sampling to quantify carbon stocks to verification standard, across grasslands and degraded agricultural land. Projects generate credits and return the land to a productive, biodiverse condition.
04
Feasibility Assessments, Project Design & Carbon Modeling
Most sites never become projects because no one runs the numbers first. We analyse land cover, sequestration potential, methodology fit, and cost and revenue projections. If the project stacks up, we build the roadmap
05
Community Engagement & Benefit-Sharing Design
Conservation without communities doesn’t last. We facilitate FPIC processes and design benefit-sharing arrangements that reflect what communities actually need.
06
Digital MRV for Monitoring & Credit Issuance
Our dMRV system automates satellite monitoring, sampling protocols, and report generation — compliant with any standard.
Project Development
We partner with landowners and communities to develop, finance, and verify nature-based credit projects — from reforestation and soil carbon to forest conservation and grassland restoration.
The Great Plains
Partnering with the Great Plains Foundation and local communities to protect and restore Africa’s most iconic species and landscapes.
EU-Life
Testing standards and methods for generating biodiversity credits in European wetlands funded by the EU.
Planetary Intelligence
Sylva’s goal is to build data architecture for the natural world. Our team approaches satellite streams, economic models, and ground sensors as a quantitative challenge. We act as your technical force multiplier, deploying advanced machine learning and automating pipelines to turn raw environmental noise into structured, timely intelligence for procurement, compliance, and conservation.
1. Land Survey Suite
Land surveys are challenging. We give teams from any background survey tools and templates for precision surveying, combining satellites, smartphones, drones, field data, and more. A “simple collection, powerful analysis” approach saves teams time and money.
2. Supply Chain and Procurement Modeling
Scale is not a problem. Satellite imagery offers a decades-long history of every location on Earth. One, centralized approach can scale to any crop in any region. Our clients make smarter decisions, profiting from faster information and scenario forecasting into the coming decade.
3. dMRV for Carbon and Climate
Turn raw observation into bankable investment. Our Digital Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (dMRV) report automation streamlines the paperwork needed to unlock carbon and conservation funding. We save time from first evaluation to the regular reports that follow.
