Vibrant Planet founder and CEO Allison Wolff recently said on the Found podcast TechCrunch that – despite how necessary proper land management is for food security, human security and the protection of biodiversity and natural resources – the industry is still stuck on paper maps, which are not always accurate.

This analogue approach makes it very difficult to predict certain disasters or weather events.

Wolff said that the Vibrant Planet – sold as an annual subscription – solves this problem by putting everything online and using artificial intelligence to make it easier and faster for your users to see how potential disasters and events can occur.

Startup uses AI to protect public services against extreme weather conditions

In recent decades, extreme weather events have not only become more severe, but are also occurring more frequently. Neara is focused on enabling utility companies and energy providers to create models of their energy networks and anything that could affect them, such as wildfires or floods.

Moving mapping online also allows organizations to work together on land management solutions that work for everyone.

Indigenous tribes can share their knowledge about how their ancestors cared for an area or land, while conservationists can explain what species on a land need to be protected, and fire chiefs can talk about fire risk.

The system also allows these groups to test different treatments for the land – such as controlled fires or removing certain trees or vegetation – to see how this will impact the land's resilience, so they can find a plan that works best for all parties involved. .
