We support your journey towards transparency
Nature-based projects fail to secure funding not because the work is poor but because the evidence isn’t there. We help you build it, from the ground up.

PHASE 1
Assess and Design
Before any tool is deployed, any dashboard built, any report drafted — you need clarity. Where is your project? What does it actually measure today? Where are the gaps between what you claim and what you can prove?
This phase is about asking the right questions. We audit your existing data infrastructure, map your stakeholder landscape, and co-design the monitoring and reporting architecture that fits your project — not the other way around.
Ideal at project launch, or when entering a new funding cycle
Solution architecture
We design the full technical and operational blueprint for your geo-transparency setup, matching your project’s scale, team capacity, and reporting requirements.

PHASE 2
Build and Implement
With the architecture in place, we build. This is where strategy becomes infrastructure. We configure explorer.land for your specific project, integrate your existing data sources, and develop any custom features your workflow requires.
Most of our clients come with constraints — limited bandwidth, legacy systems, complex multi-partner setups. We work within those realities, not around them.

PHASE 3
Monitor and Report
Impact isn’t a moment but a continuous record. This phase is where your project generates the ongoing, spatially-grounded evidence that funders, certifiers, and communities can actually trust.
We combine satellite data, field verification, and expert analysis to keep your monitoring rigorous and your reporting credible — across every reporting cycle, every year.

I really love the mobile UI! I know that challenge from Terrastories, and I think you’ve done an excellent job approaching it. I played around with the page and map, and as before, experienced that everything is as intuitive as I expect it to be. Really great stuff!

Rudo Kemper, Manager, Mapping & Programs Support
An important part of my role at Greenpop is to authentically and transparently communicate the impact of our work to our donors. explorer.land has helped me visually communicate our work. It has combined many of the goals we have for project communications into an easy-to-use platform. The service we have received from the explorer.land team has been exceptional.

ReWild Africa is a storytelling company that sheds light on solutions to ecological restoration. With OpenForests explorer.land we found an incredible valuable map-based tool to connect all story elements, including the films we are producing to a specific project location. This way we enable our clients to tell engaging and transformative stories in a transparent way.

Since engagement in explorer.land, potential clients, and partners are contacting us. It is a wonderful platform with a super-wide network of potential clients and partners. It has helped us a lot in moving forward with our ecosystem restoration activities. Not only because we can prove exactly what we are doing, but it has also put us in contact with various international clients and partners. The platform really works for us.
