Netcarbon Development

For cities and infrastructures

We can help you make the transition to more sustainable development.
The Netcarbon Intelligence platform was created to address the needs of public and private players, enabling them to take stock of their land, model, simulate and certify the impact of development projects.

Takingstock

→ Understand your territory and its evolution through multiple indicators (carbon, artificialisation, Urban Heat Islands...)
→ Easily meet regulatory requirements (Zero Net Artificialization (ZAN), PCAET)‍

Artificialization detection

Heat islands

A tool for detecting and counting trees in urban areas, enabling us to monitor changes in the tree population and tree planting projects.

Indicator of soil classification in a city

Detection of land use patterns (built-up areas, grasslands, trees, parking lots, etc.). This indicator, available at centimeter resolution, can be used to calculate carbon stock, vegetation cover and artificialisation indicators.

Indicator of the humidity level of the vegetation to identify risks of water stress.

Quantity of CO2 absorbed by vegetation through photosynthesis over one year (expressed in tCO2/ha).

Mapping the vegetation cover of an area to identify green corridors and breaks in ecological continuity.

Quantity of carbon contained in soils between 0 cm and 30 cm depth.

This indicator represents surface temperature and helps identify urban heat islands.

Detection and quantification of areas removed from their natural state (fallow land, grassland, wetlands, forests or farmland).

Simulate
your landscaping projects

→ Prioritize areas on which to take action based on objectives (increased carbon storage, reduction of heat islands)
→ Model future development projects and make before/after project comparisons to find out the impact on various indicators (soil artificialisation, vegetation cover, carbon, temperature)
→ Optimize your development projects in m

Simulation steps for infrastructures, companies and cities

Monitor
the impact of your projects

→ Steer your decarbonation strategy and monitor the appropriateness of your actions in relation to your objectives (limiting land artificialisation, combating UHI, preserving vegetated areas).

FAQ

How do you certify a renaturation project?

⌃

For a renaturation project to be certified, it must meet a set of requirements. Each certification system has specific objectives, results and requirements. Under the Low Carbon Label, for example, the level of soil sealing and the quantity of carbon stored are major criteria. You can test your project's eligibility for theLabel Bas Carbonein just a few clicks, using our macro calculator.

How can carbon sequestration be measured within the framework of the PCAET?

⌃

Today, measuring carbon sequestration can be done in 2 ways:

→ Commission a laboratory to take soil samples.

→ Use reference systems associating carbon stocks with land-use patterns.

At Netcarbon, we have developed a tool that measures carbon stock and capture on an annual basis, using satellite data. This provides an annual update of carbon stocks at the intermunicipal level, but also for each commune.

What is a heat island?

⌃

An Urban Heat Island (UHI) is a phenomenon where urban areas are significantly warmer than the surrounding rural areas. This is due to the density of buildings, heat-retaining building materials, lack of vegetation and heat-generating human activities. UHIs can lead to public health problems, increased energy consumption, degraded air quality and negative environmental impacts.

How to combat heat islands?

⌃

There are several methods to combat heat islands and high temperatures:
- Increasing green spaces: Planting trees and creating parks can help lower temperatures through shade and evapotranspiration.
- Green roofs and walls: Installing green roofs and walls helps insulate buildings and reduce heat.
- Reflective materials: Using reflective building materials for roofs and roads can reduce heat absorption.
- Improved urban planning: Integrate urban cooling strategies into city design to minimize the effects of UHIs.
