TREEO

Reliable data about every single tree for trusted nature-based carbon removals

Note: Please first register with a TPI (Tree Planting Initiative) to fully use the TREEO App or create a trial account to test the app.

TREEO connects net-zero companies with tree growers worldwide to reliably remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Our easy-to-use app allows farmers to scan their trees and collect accurate and verified data about the carbon storage from every single tree. This brings the necessary trust and transparency to the nascent carbon market.

The TREEO app is a digital tool that enables small-holder farmers to plant trees in agroforestry systems, calculate their value and retrieve best practice recommendations for agroforestry plantations. The app works on simple, affordable and older smartphones. It allows 100% offline use, including field and tree monitoring, timber value estimation and coaching material. Today the TREEO app supports farmers for three use cases:

* Land surveys

With the land survey component, small-holder farmers can map their land. In doing so, they can link surveyed trees to an area in order to establish traceability and origin of the trees. Associated Tree Planting Initiatives (TPIs) can check whether the area meets our regulations for eligible land (e.g. robust land ownership, land status, location, soil quality).

* Tree scanning

The farmer takes a picture of the tree. Through imagery analysis, the TREEO algorithm measures the diameter, documents it in a file, and assigns it to a specific plot of land. At each measurement, the GPS location is stored to confirm that the tree is on that plot. With the automatic measurement calibrated with the TREEO card, the timber volume, the CO2 removed from the atmosphere, and prices of individual trees and entire stands are calculated.

* Guiding and training material for farmers

TREEO provides a work plan for farmers with due dates and training material. To-do lists and audio guides assist farmers during every activity. This helps farmers to implement best practices and gain optimal benefits from their trees.

With TREEO, reforestation finally becomes more profitable than deforestation.
