'We are turning the tide for biodiversity and our planet's future, harnessing the power of Hexagon's technology to protect the world's critical ecosystems,' said
Powered by Hexagon's digital reality platform (HxDR), R-evolution has led the development of the Green Cubes Methodology, a pioneering approach to forest monitoring and visualisation. This approach combines technology and science to generate a digital twin of the forest, leveraging Hexagon's state-of-the-art airborne hybrid image and LiDAR sensors and ground-based reality capture technology to measure and visualise forest volume, complexity and biodiversity indication.
Deforestation, livestock farming and palm oil production have caused an average 69% decline of wildlife populations according to the
In collaboration with leading scientists and local communities to enhance conservation initiatives, the project meets ESG contribution requirements for corporate sponsors and provides forest owners with a sustainable, recurring income to make conservation financially viable
