Scaling AWD Rice Carbon Verification Across 4,000 Hectares

An AWD rice carbon project needed to verify flooding cycles across thousands of smallholder plots without a field team the size of a small army.

The approach

Satellite radar (SAR) time-series detected standing water at the plot level, replacing manual logbooks with an auditable, remote data trail suitable for registry submission.

The result

Verification time per reporting cycle dropped from months to weeks, with a fully traceable data record for every plot.
