The field
At a glance
Definition
Technologies monitoring and protecting ecosystems and wildlife conservation
Technologies
Environmental DNA (eDNA) detects species presence from water and soil samples without visual observation. Satellite remote sensing monitors habitat change and deforestation. Acoustic monitoring identifies species from their calls and songs. AI identifies species from images (camera traps, drone footage). Biodiversity credit platforms enable investment in measurable conservation outcomes.
Applications
eDNA sampling assesses fish population health in rivers and lakes. Satellite monitoring tracks deforestation and habitat conversion. Acoustic sensors monitor bird and insect populations. Biodiversity credit platforms fund verified conservation projects.
Market and funding
Biodiversity technology monitors, protects, and restores ecosystems using AI, remote sensing, and eDNA. With 1 funder. Emerging as a new investment category driven by the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
