Practical guides aligned with public materials from the Forestry Agency of Japan, IPCC, and TNFD. Written for corporate sustainability teams, public-sector officials, and forestry practitioners.
Dholera, Sanand, and ISM 2.0 are putting billions of fab investment into water-sensitive basins. Under TNFD, BRSR Principle 6, and CDP Water Security, every fab and lender now needs watershed-level evidence — and the satellite stack is free.
India's ₹66,000 Cr CAMPA corpus + plantation non-maintenance findings from CAG / CEC = a textbook case for a free, tamper-proof, plot-level monitoring layer. We outline how Sentinel-2 + Merkle hash + RFC 3161 timestamps complement state forest department processes without replacing them.
Karnataka supplies 70%+ of India's coffee. With EUDR live, CCTS open, and TNFD reshaping ESG, every exporter and roaster needs watershed-level evidence — and the free satellite stack to deliver it is already there.
India's CCTS goes live in 2026 with afforestation registered. The Cauvery / Krishna basins are under water stress. We map our Japan-tested stack onto Western Ghats with FSI, IMD, and CartoSat — same Sentinel-2, same formulas.
GX-ETS goes live April 2026. The ¥4,300 cap meets a forest-credit market at ¥10,000+ — we map covered companies, strategy choices, price trajectory, and purchase channels.
How to measure and disclose forest dependency and impact — for water-intensive manufacturing, housing, finance. Step-by-step against the LEAP approach with global data sources and India BRSR / IFSCA notes.
The forest-as-reservoir function, quantified by a new standard method (Forestry Agency of Japan Ver.1.0). Formulas, required inputs, a Himi City worked example, and the India substitutions (IMD, Bhuvan, FSI).
Between national-default precision and proprietary LiDAR sits Tier 2 × satellite NDVI. Formulas, processing flow, full stack, the Shizuoka 1,102-stand worked example, and Western Ghats Tier 2 numbers.
A market that crossed ¥10,000/t-CO₂ and is heading toward ¥20,000. 264 nationwide projects on one transparent map, four purchase channels, and how to choose. (Japan-specific)
