Earth Archive wants to create 3D earth & Amazon forest
Earth Archive wants to create 3D earth & Amazon forest. An open-source digital twin of Earth We’re bringing together the world’s TOP geospatial experts for a FREE, 2-day event.
Chapter I: The Amazon June 15th – 16th 2021
About Earth Archive
Table of Contents
The Earth Archive is an emerging conservation initiative that is revolutionizing the fight against the climate crisis. By scanning the planet’s land surface with very high-resolution lidar, the Earth Archive will create a true 3-dimensional digital twin of our world – an open-source, digital record of the Earth that will reflect the landscape exactly as it was at the time of scanning. With this endeavor, the Earth Archive is positioned to provide geospatial data that will serve as the baseline for understanding & exploring our world.
While our scope is the entire planet, we’ve tasked ourselves with firsts scanning areas that are not only most susceptible to change, but also deep in value for understanding our past. The 2021 inaugural Earth Archive Congress is centered on our initial campaign to scan the entire Amazon Basin.
The Amazon rainforest plays a monumental role in the Earth’s climate, has an incredibly rich Indigenous history & boasts a remarkable level of ecological diversity – but is vanishing before our eyes. With the ability to digitally preserve landscapes at any moment in time, very high-resolution lidar can enhance archaeological, anthropological & conservation studies and provide needed information to help advance sustainable development, as well as provide us with more groundbreaking revelations of the Amazon’s astounding past.
The Congress will connect researchers, students, NGOs, stakeholders, indigenous groups, governmental officials & corporate interests to become partners in this groundbreaking effort. Expanding the global Earth Archive community in this way encourages all levels of society to collaborate on a project that could prove fundamental to a solution for climate change. Join this hybrid event to become part of this unprecedented initiative.
The Earth Archive Congress features 60+ speakers over 2 days on topics including geospatial technology, mapping, climate research & conservation, including…

DAY ONE TOPIC >
the first day is all about WHY we’re scanning the Amazon with LiDAR & how we’ll do it.
Day one We’ll explore technological issues in Amazon mapping & dive into regionally specific reports from the nine countries that encompass the Amazon Basin.
DAY TWO TOPIC >
The second day is about the bigger picture: how our open-source Amazon scan will impact scientists, policymakers & local constituents.
Day two We’ll cover topics like how to use geospatial data for habitat conservation, how to empower indigenous communities & how to build social & ecological resilience. If you have even the slightest interest in geospatial tech, mapping, climate, and conservation, you won’t want to miss it.
How open-source Amazon scan will impact scientists, policymakers & local constituents. We’ll cover topics like how to use geospatial data for habitat conservation, how to empower indigenous communities, and how to build social & ecological resilience.
Discover
Learn about advances in earth observation technology to help solve complex environmental & ecosystem challenges in addition to identifying ancient archeological treasures. Innovative satellite, aerial & drone technologies now enable rapid & large-scale mapping to support programs to preserve archeological sites, restore ecosystems & support climate change mitigation & adaptation. These critical technologies hold the promise of solving our most challenging environmental & social challenges while enabling the recording of priceless archeological sites.
Showcase
Showcase your innovative technologies, businesses, research & programs to a global community of public & private sector enterprises who have a bias for action in solving our most challenging environmental & social challenges in one of the most valuable global resources – the Amazon. This unique event will deliver near & long-term value to participants.
Network
Connect & build relationships with thought leaders from multi-national corporations, the public sector, non-governmental organizations, academic institutions & civil society. The event will catalyze action & build a roadmap for addressing critical issues such as climate change, ecosystem health & preservation of our archeological resources. The event will provide a unique & dynamic experience for networking & connecting with diverse thought leaders & stakeholders. Earth Archive wants to create 3D earth & Amazon forest
