Satellite-Based Measurement of Carbon Capture in Agricultural Systems

NAX provides a digital solution for monitoring carbon capture in agricultural systems using satellite remote sensing and machine learning models.

The platform analyzes multi-temporal satellite imagery to quantify vegetation growth, biomass accumulation, and plant physiological activity. These indicators allow the estimation of carbon fixation by crops through photosynthesis and the calculation of CO₂ captured during the crop cycle.

The system combines optical and radar satellite data with AI-based models to generate spatially explicit indicators of biomass and crop development at field and regional scales. This enables continuous monitoring of carbon dynamics without the need for extensive field measurements.

The solution can be applied to multiple agricultural crops and production systems and provides data useful for sustainability reporting, carbon accounting, and climate-smart agriculture initiatives.

Key applications include:

• Estimation of crop biomass and carbon accumulation

• Monitoring of CO₂ capture throughout the crop cycle

• Support for carbon accounting and sustainability metrics

• Validation of regenerative agriculture practices

• Integration with carbon credit and climate reporting frameworks

By providing scalable and objective measurements of vegetation growth and biomass development, the system helps quantify the role of agricultural systems in carbon sequestration and climate mitigation.

The estimation of carbon capture is supported by satellite-derived indicators such as biomass, chlorophyll activity, and vegetation indices that reflect plant photosynthetic activity and accumulated organic matter.
