Satellite Monitoring & Ranger Patrol Expansion
Group ESG Lead
B. Baseline
Current Situation
Manual ranger patrols cover 40% of perimeter monthly; encroachment detected retrospectively
Baseline Date
Data Quality
Baseline Metrics
Counterfactual
Without expansion, encroachment risk continues to threaten carbon permanence
C. Objectives
Intended Change
Near real-time satellite alert system combined with expanded community ranger network
Target
Target Date
Affected Stakeholders
Expected Benefits
Reduced reversal risk, improved biodiversity protection, local employment for rangers
D. Options
Alternatives Considered
Drone patrols only (rejected - limited coverage in dense canopy), satellite plus community rangers (selected)
Do-Nothing Case
Continued undetected encroachment risking carbon reversal and habitat loss
Reason Selected
Combined approach provides best coverage while creating local employment
E. Cross-Pillar Effects Review
Could solving this problem create a different environmental, social or governance problem?
Potential Trade-offs / Unintended Consequences
None significant identified
This project has completed its Cross-Pillar Effects Review
