The Sky Is the Limit

One Tree At A Time

We often try to imagine CEO Tom Cummins as a young teen with long hair hugging trees and participating in peaceful protests to prevent industrialist from ruining forestry. As funny as that would’ve been to see, and as true as it could’ve been, things are different in this day and age. Today, the information at our fingertips educates society and grows specialization. This sets a standard where professionally accurate data is the weapon against unreasonable methods. Protection of the environment is done not only with passion, but also with tactic. How? Technology’s birth and enhancement has made it possible to use Data Analytics and Big Data  software to record changes of the atmosphere, climates, erosion.

 

 

Big World Big Data

Big Data is changing the world for the better. Technology enables a detection of environmental problems as well as diagnoses for them. Big Data software provides the opportunity to track forest growth, and decline. This information is collected, analyzed, and compartmentalized so that dangers are specified and solutions are uncovered.The software created by Rezatec monitors/ measures the following  “Species Mapping, Mensuration, Health, Disturbance, Carbon & Biomass Stock & Flux, Windblow and Fire & Habitat Connectivity”(Rezatec, 2017).  “By developing pioneering data analysis techniques and machine learning algorithms, Rezatec is now able to produce powerful analytical insights for owners and managers of the world’s forest” (Rezatec, 2017).

 

 

New Studies

Rezatec works with DEFRA and UK Space Agency to establish how common threats to forests can be detected and addressed to mitigate risk to valuable tree stock. This type of data helps to be comprehensive and strategic in any decision making that affects the surrounding forestry.  This is groundbreaking innovation and it is all thanks to utilizing Big Data to the fullest. In the past people could barely keep their facts straight and the facts were forever changing. Change remains a constant but now we record, test, and analyze everything. Trends from this stored data are easily measured and accessible via CRM/ Software tool.

 

So Now You Know

The information that is available based on current technologies gives us a huge upper hand in this 20th century. It may not be as fun as peaceful protests and tree hugging, but currently big data is proven effective.  It is is obvious that personal, professional, technological and analytical changes can be made in order to help the environment. Tom Cummins has had us mention in many blogs that everyone has to do their part. The journey of saving and preserving the environment is long but well worth it.
