Environmental
and Climate Monitoring

Smart Agriculture

With the global population projected to reach 9 billion by 2050, food production will need to increase by 70% to meet future demand. In this context, Brazil stands out not only for having one of the world's largest biodiversities but also for being one of the largest food producers on the planet.

Information about water consumption, soil quality, equipment efficiency and livestock monitoring has never been so strategic. Our teams support agribusiness leaders by providing solutions from various sources to help them maintain soil quality, reduce erosion, sustainable manage water resources, and raise cattle in an environmentally friendly manner. Our solutions help farmers make the best decisions, aiming to conserve both the soil and the planet's resources.

Connected sensors, land occupancy data, soil quality, reliable and easy-to-use connectivity, and decision-support platforms are the building blocks we provide to the main actors in the agricultural sector.

Herd Management

Our telemetry experts use over 40 years of experience in Argos system and the combination of spatial data to offer integrated solutions to livestock managers that combines satellite tracking and environmental measurements obtained through Earth observation.

We provide insights about animals, their habitats and living conditions. These data, integrated into our "livestock" databases, are transformed into usable information to support sustainable management tailored to each type of user.

Fighting Pollution

Pollution is a global challenge, affecting land, water and air. Our team proposes the Argos solution to help quantify this problem through specialized equipment for real-time pollution monitoring.

This adaptable solution can be customized to monitor various forms of pollution, including plastics, oil spills, atmospheric pollutants, and harmful algae blooms.

A success story for CLS Brazil was the monitoring of floating solid waste during the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

Oceanography

Today, environmental experts increasingly rely on refined satellite systems to assist in the collection of in-situ data to inform decision-making for the protection of our planet.

Argos modems, associated connectivity, complementary data provision (radar, optical, tech), and CLS data visualization and interpretation platforms are solutions developed by our experts for the international scientific community, enabling new technologies to be quickly and easily connected and offering data services for a wide range of applications.

These services enable CLS Brazil to monitor and transmit data collected along the Brazilian coastline, leading to better environmental impact assessments.

Sustainable Water & Forests Management

Forests play a critical role in maintaining the health of the planet. As producers of vital oxygen, they clean the air, house more than three-quarters of the Earth's biodiversity, and significantly contribute to mitigating climate change. Therefore, the preservation of these ecosystems is essential.

CLS experts contribute to various projects in Africa, South America, and Europe to promote environmental conservation.

Our solutions include:

• Dynamic Forest Assessment: Estimating vegetation cover, monitoring forest losses and gains, and determining forest composition.
• Forest Disturbance Monitoring: Tracking forest health, mapping incidents such as tree falls, fires, and landslides.
• Approach to water resources, infrastructure, natural risks, climate change impacts, and food security.

CLS Brazil provides reliable and accurate data based on in-situ and satellite observations, tailored to each need and supported by approximately 900 professionals worldwide to help conserve our water resources and dense forests.

Land Management

CLS Group experts have developed solutions to support urban growth and land use control.

These data are used in a tailored manner for each territory in various parts of the world:

• Land use at a variety of scales, from very large to small.
• Historical, current and prospective mapping.
• Detection of renaturalization and artificialization potentials.
• Databases on land use changes, land consumption and statistics.
• Throughout the year, our teams deliver high-resolution maps tailored to the specific needs of each type of territory.

By applying the services described above, it is possible to make more land productive and ensure that lands already used for this purpose are even more efficient.
