The Earth Archive
We are a US-based non-profit (501c3) using airborne scanning technology to create a 3D digital twin of the planet, providing science and industry with the baseline tools to address the climate crisis and preserve our global cultural and ecological heritage. Scanning the Earth’s entire land surface from the air is an enormous undertaking, so we’re starting with some of the most vital–and vulnerable–ecosystems. Our rapidly changing earth presents a grand challenge for humanity and there is an urgent need to digitally capture the planet’s surface, providing a legacy for future generations, and as a critical baseline for measuring sustainability efforts including carbon offsets.
