geoFootprint - Accelerating Sustainable Agriculture
Description: Visualize the environmental footprint of your crops on a world map + get quick answers to complex sustainability questions with geoFootprint.
GeoFootprint is a multi-stakeholder initiative launched by Quantis in 2018 in partnership with arx iT and the Cool Farm Alliance and developed with the support from EIT Climate-KIC and leading agrifood companies, as well as advisory inputs from global organizations and academic experts. It was built with the idea that spatially explicit footprints, calculated at global scale, would facilitate our capacity to measure, understand and monitor how different agricultural practices can accelerate the transition t
Quantis has decided to discontinue geoFootprint because it no longer aligns with the current realities of agricultural footprinting. Agricultural footprinting has undergone considerable changes in the short time since geoFootprint was conceived. Though geoFootprint can provide companies with the high-level impact estimations, it is not able to provide the level of granularity in location-specific data that companies require to estimate and monitor the impact of interventions.
Though the sun may be setting on geoFootprint, Quantis is excited about what the future holds. We’re now entering into a new phase of exploration and innovation that will enable us to enhance our land and agriculture footprinting capabilities and tools to better address the key challenges companies face today. Quantis is currently working on developing tools that can help companies reduce uncertainties related to agricultural footprinting estimations in order to be able to take guided decisions that better
