When you ask Global Nature Watch a question, our system of agents work together to understand your request and deliver the most accurate, relevant answers.
Retrieving quality data
Our data comes via APIs from Global Forest Watch and Land & Carbon Lab, initiatives powered by contributions from researchers and partners around the globe. This means verifiable data from authoritative sources.
Tuning the AI model's response
We use Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to link data retrieved via our trusted APIs with real documentation, methods papers and metadata from our research.
Returning a response
Our agents create summaries of spatial data, search through datasets, and explain insights clearly in your own language.
Global Nature Watch serves up the latest breakthroughs in geospatial data from the field-leading research and technology partners behind Land & Carbon Lab and Global Forest Watch.
We're making environmental geospatial data faster, more accessible and easier to use for everyone working to protect and restore nature.
We know that monitoring works. Global Forest Watch has helped transform how the world monitors forests, putting timely, open data into the hands of users worldwide. Global Nature Watch builds on that foundation — bringing together research from Land & Carbon Lab and Global Forest Watch in an experimental, open, AI-powered system that expands monitoring beyond forests to include other ecosystems and land dynamics. Anyone working to protect, restore or sustainably manage land can explore change happening across Earth by asking questions in plain language and receiving responses supported by satellite imagery, maps, statistics and context.
We tackle the hardest challenges in monitoring nature, providing globally consistent data built by some of the world’s most talented experts. Our data is designed to empower real-world action, today and into the future.
With so much geospatial data available, it can be hard to know where to start. Global Nature Watch places the power of a personal geospatial assistant in your pocket. AI trained on peer-reviewed datasets helps both experts and newcomers navigate, analyze and apply insights.
We believe the future of monitoring is open, scalable and integrative. That's why Global Nature Watch will be able to connect with your own systems, extending the power of your data.
Global Nature Watch is developed by Land & Carbon Lab, a research initiative convened by the Bezos Earth Fund and World Resources Institute, in collaboration with other partners shaping the future of monitoring research, data and analysis.
