We Are Passionate About Our Mission
Humanity is faced with an urgent need to respond to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and resulting global warming, however, a decade+ after the Kyoto Protocol we are no closer to a solution. In fact, for the first time in human history the Earth’s atmospheric composition has reached 400+ ppm CO2 belying the astounding ineffectiveness of actions thus far. Planet Alpha Corp. is responding to this urgent problem with new patented technology and large scale applications not previously implemented. Our diverse and talented team is dedicated to the mission of Planet Alpha: direct quantification of emission reduction across diverse project sites and reduction of atmospheric GHG’s. We are working to establish sustainable forest ecosystems for future generations.

Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and Remote Sensing (RS)
A variety of UAS’s may be used in a project to record the status of forest conditions at low altitude (e.g., ~1,000 ft) on a routine basis, when a disturbance has occurred (e.g., hurricane, drought, timber operations) or for surveillance of forest activity by landowners or others accessing the site. Typical capabilities may include spectral imaging of the tree canopy and mapping functions to reveal differences along the flight path over time. In addition, UAS’s may also carry miniaturized gas sensors for CO2, CH4 and other atmospheric gases. The use of remote sensing (RS) for ecological research is well documented covering spectral bands for normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), leaf evapotranspiration and other features of the biotic and abiotic project area.
