Current challenges

The problems with paper-based REDD+ MRV

Manual, paper-based monitoring is error-prone and hard to scale — every gap here resurfaces later as a verification delay.

Unverifiable boundaries

Project boundaries survive as decade-old shapefiles nobody can reconcile against what's actually on the ground.

Lost patrol logs

Ranger patrols are recorded in paper notebooks that rarely make it back to the office intact.

Unrecorded threats

Logging, fire and encroachment go unlogged until a satellite alert fires — too late to act or to evidence.

Undocumented benefits

Community benefit-sharing payments go undocumented, inviting the disputes that undermine a project's social licence.

Paper-based REDD+ MRV drives up operational cost, delays verification, and pushes carbon-credit issuance further out of reach.

Digital REDD+ MRV Platform

How TrueCarbon digitises REDD+ monitoring

Avoided deforestation, proven with patrol logs and boundary data, with enterprise-grade accuracy and immutable audit trails.

01

GPS project & buffer boundaries

Project area, buffer zones and leakage belts are registered as verified GPS geometry, not a decade-old shapefile.

02

Digital patrol logging

Ranger and community patrols log routes, observations and threats in-app, GPS-tracked and timestamped.

03

Threat & encroachment records

Logging, fire and encroachment incidents are geotagged and photo-evidenced as they're found, not reconstructed later.

04

Benefit-sharing records

Community payments and in-kind benefits are logged against registered beneficiaries, building an auditable distribution trail.

FAQ

REDD+ dMRV — FAQs

Answers to the questions teams ask most about REDD+ dMRV and TrueCarbon.

Does TrueCarbon support VM0007 and VM0015 REDD+ methodologies?

The configurable field schema captures project boundaries, patrol data, threat monitoring and benefit-sharing records — the core evidence categories VM0007 and VM0015 monitoring plans call for.

Can community rangers use the platform without reliable internet?

Yes. The mobile app is offline-first; patrol and threat data sync automatically once a ranger is back in coverage.
