What is habitat mapping?
Habitat mapping is the precise classification of ecosystems within a defined boundary. It identifies distinct natural assets—from wetlands and woodlands to urban green infrastructure. This process generates actionable nature intelligence, providing the baseline data essential for risk mitigation, TNFD alignment, and climate resilience planning.
Why is habitat mapping important?
Precision habitat mapping surveys underpin Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) alignment, EHS regulatory compliance, and risk mitigation. It provides the essential baselines for strategic land use and ecological restoration—empowering data-driven decisions and robust nature strategies.
What methodologies are used?
We align with global standards and TNFD requirements, ensuring seamless integration with risk and reporting frameworks. We also support the IUCN Habitats Classification Scheme. For unique operational goals, we engineer custom classification models tailored to specific geographies, risk profiles, or stakeholder needs.

What is habitat mapping?
Habitat mapping is the precise classification of different natural environments within a defined boundary. It generates actionable biodiversity data, serving as the baseline for risk mitigation, TNFD alignment, and strategic land management.
How accurate is Gentian’s habitat mapping?
We leverage sub-50cm satellite imagery and AI trained on proprietary data for precise habitat mapping. Our premium maps (Gentian True Sight) are rigorously verified by our in-house ecologists.
What resolution do you use?
We leverage imagery as fine as 12.5cm, delivering outputs at <50cm resolution.
How do you assess habitat condition remotely?
We leverage proprietary AI models correlated with ground-truth data, validated by expert ecologists. While condition scoring is complex, we deliver reliable estimates—pinpointing high-risk zones that require physical inspection.
Can Gentian’s maps accelerate due diligence and site scoping?
Absolutely. Our habitat maps are critical during early-stage site selection to quantify biodiversity value, identify regulatory risks, and de-risk investment decisions.
How frequently can habitat maps be updated?
We offer continuous monitoring, refreshing data annually or on-demand based on satellite availability. This is essential for tracking long-term trends, climate resilience, and restoration impact.
