Satellite monitoring of industrial emissions by the Carbonova platform

Satellite monitoring, AI, and industrial data — real-time compliance, from orbit to operation.

Carbonova’s Sentinel AI combines satellite imagery, IoT sensors and machine learning to flag environmental and operational anomalies across the value chain. It detects energy-use patterns, deforestation and industrial activity with geospatial precision. Every alert becomes auditable, traceable evidence, integrated with CarbonOS intelligence.

Satellite Observation
Multispectral satellite imagery processed by AI to detect thermal and environmental anomalies, deforestation and industrial activity.
AI Anomaly Detection
Machine learning models flag unexpected emission spikes, land-cover changes, or operational drift — before they show up in regulatory reports.

Real-Time Alerts
Automatic alerts trigger when anomalies are detected, connecting geospatial signals to operations teams and compliance workflows.
Geospatial Intelligence
End-to-end traceability from satellite pixel to audit-ready disclosure, with full data lineage for EUDR due diligence and CSRD assurance.
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires the geolocation of every plot of land that produced commodities such as soy, coffee, cocoa and wood. It applies to large and medium operators from 30 December 2026.

What is Carbonova’s Sentinel AI?

Up arrow icon

Sentinel AI is the CarbonOS agent that combines satellite imagery with industrial and IoT sensor data and uses AI to detect environmental and operational anomalies. It flags deviations at facilities, supply chain sites and land-use boundaries, such as thermal anomalies, changes in vegetation cover or unusual energy use, and explains the reason for each alert in English or Portuguese.

Who is Sentinel AI for, and which satellite monitoring problems does it solve?

Up arrow icon

It serves environmental, sustainability, compliance and procurement teams that need to watch many sites without visiting each one, in sectors such as agribusiness, mining, energy, and oil and gas. The agent helps check whether supplier land has been deforested, compare declared data with independent observation and catch operational deviations before they reach regulatory reports.

How does Sentinel AI work, and which satellite and field data does it use?

Up arrow icon

It combines multispectral satellite imagery with the field signals that Signal Ingest brings in from SCADA, IoT sensors and meters, all on the same asset graph. AI models flag environmental and operational deviations and explain why, and each alert goes through triage, acknowledgement and resolution. The agent also produces emissions forecasts from this data and links every alert to the asset and to the data source.

Which regulations does Sentinel AI’s satellite monitoring help companies meet?

Up arrow icon

The most direct case is the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), which requires the geolocation of every plot of land that produced commodities such as soy, coffee, cocoa and wood, and proof of no deforestation after 31 December 2020. It applies to large and medium operators from 30 December 2026 (European Commission, 2026), and suppliers outside the EU provide the data. Sentinel AI also produces geospatial evidence for CSRD and IFRS S2 reporting.

How does Sentinel AI connect with CarbonOS and Carbonova Sense?

Up arrow icon

Sentinel AI’s geospatial data feeds Carbon Intelligence, to compare the declared inventory with independent observation, Risk Management, which uses the signals in risk scoring, and Compliance Hub, which builds CSRD, ISSB and EUDR reports. Supply Chain uses the alerts in supplier assessments. For flares, Carbonova Sense complements the satellite view by inferring the combustion state on the asset itself.

Do Sentinel AI alerts replace emissions measurement at the plant?

Up arrow icon

No. Alerts show where to look and serve as independent evidence to check declared data, but emissions are still quantified from the plant’s measured data and the versioned emission factors in Carbon Intelligence. When an alert leads to a correction, the change is recorded in the Proof Engine with lineage back to the source, and verification stays with the independent verifier, in line with ISO 14064-3.
