The use of AI and satellite imagery is revolutionizing supply chain tracking, offering advanced tools to address critical sustainability challenges. We’ll zoom in on the palm oil sector, where this technology is driving an end-to-end change, enabling more transparent and sustainable practices. By leveraging real-time satellite data and AI analytics, companies can monitor land use, deforestation, and supply chain activities with greater accuracy, complementing traditional data collection methods and strengthening compliance with sustainability certifications.
Enhancing visibility not only mitigates environmental risks but also opens new pathways for sustainable financing and business innovation.
