NICFI Satellite Data Program

Through Norway’s International Climate & Forests Initiative (NICFI), users can now access Planet’s high-resolution, analysis-ready mosaics of the world’s tropics in order to help reduce and reverse the loss of tropical forests, combat climate change, conserve biodiversity and facilitate sustainable development for non commercial uses.

In support of NICFI’s mission, you can use this data for several projects including, but not limited to:

• advancing scientific research about the world’s tropical forests and the critical services they provide;
• implementing and improving policies for sustainable forest management and land use in developing tropical forest countries and jurisdictions;
• increasing transparency and accountability in the tropics;
• protecting and improving the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities in tropical forest countries; and
• innovating solutions towards reducing pressure on forests from global commodities and financial markets.
