Earth Blox Nature-based Solutions Assessments

Earth Blox, operated by Quosient Ltd, is an Edinburgh-based nature and climate analytics company founded in 2019 and led by CEO Dr. Genevieve Patenaude. It helps carbon buyers, project developers, banks and corporates assess nature-related risks and opportunities without building in-house remote sensing teams.

The no-code SaaS platform runs on Google Cloud and combines satellite imagery going back 40 years with curated datasets from sources such as NASA, ESA and IBAT, plus customer data. For nature-based solutions it offers analysis packages for ARR, REDD+, blue carbon (mangroves, wetlands) and biodiversity credit projects, covering baseline checks, additionality, carbon stock, leakage and climate risk. Continuous monitoring tracks biomass, vegetation health, fire and deforestation inside project boundaries with alerts, and a partnership with Chloris Geospatial adds biomass data aligned with Verra VM0047. Users include South Pole, Climate Impact Partners, Ecologi and The Nature Conservancy.

• NbS analysis packages: ready workflows for ARR, REDD+, blue carbon and biodiversity credit projects.
• Due diligence checks: additionality, carbon stock, leakage and climate risk from earth observation data.
• Continuous monitoring: biomass, vegetation health, fire and deforestation alerts within project boundaries.
• VM0047 support: stocking index, baseline and donor pool analysis with Chloris biomass data.
• Curated data catalogue: 40 years of satellite imagery plus NASA, ESA and IBAT datasets.
• Integration: REST API and availability on Google Cloud Marketplace.

A Vietnamese bank or fund evaluating mangrove or forest carbon projects can screen baselines and risks before financing. A carbon project developer can monitor fire and forest loss across several provinces with automated alerts. An exporter of timber, coffee or rubber can assess nature risks in sourcing areas to support TNFD and EUDR reporting.

Sustainability and procurement teams without geospatial specialists can run initial checks on carbon projects themselves rather than waiting for consultants. Developers' claims can be tested against independent satellite data before credits are bought, protecting reputation. Ongoing alerts on fire, deforestation and biomass loss help manage project integrity after purchase, and documented workflows and an ISO 27001 certified system give auditable evidence.

Corporate buyers and financiers face pressure to prove the quality of the nature-based credits they buy, while frameworks such as TNFD, CSRD and the EU EUDR require evidence on nature impacts and deforestation. Blue carbon and mangrove projects are gaining attention in Southeast Asia, including Vietnam's Mekong Delta coast, increasing demand for independent satellite checks.
