OPPORTUNITY: Baltic Satellite Service offers remote forest monitoring across the Baltics with Satellite Imagery

SIA Baltic Satellite Service has launched a cutting-edge remote forest monitoring solution powered by satellite data and Earth observation analytics. Delivered via the GeoHub.net platform, this service offers both free and commercial satellite imagery to provide real-time insights into forest dynamics across the Baltic region.

Key Applications:

1. Clearcut Detection (Free Web Tool), which is based on optical satellite imagery, updated 3+ times per year and which integrates directly with GIS platforms and national forest registers. Try it here: app.geohub.net/forest

2. Annual Forest Health Risk Monitoring: New data are delivered monthly during the growing season (May–October), with high-resolution (3 m) imagery capturing risks such as pests, diseases, and wildfires. The solution is offered on a per-hectare basis, with low operational costs to support broad adoption across both public and private sectors.

What Makes This Platform Unique

• Combines multi-source EO data (Sentinel, commercial satellites)
• Web-based analytics with data integration tools
• Supports environmental protection, forest policy, and resource planning

How It Works:

• Upload forest parcel data
• Access up-to-date forest condition maps
• Receive alerts on changes such as clearcutting
• Cross-reference with orthophotos, protected area boundaries, registries, and satellite time series
• Download data in formats: GeoJSON, CSV, Excel, Shapefile, SQLite

The plarform will be useful tool for EO professionals, forest agencies, and space-tech enthusiasts, because it offers a real-world example of how space-based data drives climate resilience and sustainable land management.
