The National Trust, Europe’s largest conservation charity, is working with leading geospatial AI company, Rezatec, to remotely establish a baseline of hydro-morphological, ecological, soil and carbon characteristics to support project planning and underpin ongoing monitoring for their large-scale landscape recovery project on the Holnicote Estate, Somerset.
“At the National Trust we’re collaborating with multiple stakeholders to deliver significant, long-term land use change across 6,700 acres of land adjoining the Holnicote Estate. Connecting up nature across the woodlands is a huge part of this,” says Annie Murray, project manager. “Rezatec provides the ideal remote sensing tool to capture robust metrics for canopy connectiveness, helping us measure how the project is improving nature across a wide area for the long term.”
“Rezatec is delighted to leverage our work with leading forest management and agriculture companies across the globe to deliver the National Trust a comprehensive baseline of above-ground biomass and hedgerow condition, robust metrics for canopy connectiveness and use space-borne radar to deliver dynamic on-going monitoring,” adds Camilla Braithwaite, Head of Product at Rezatec.
“These insights, powered by Rezatec’s leading geospatial AI platform, will support the Trust to deliver their vision to embrace natural processes and support land managers to create space for water, restore woodland and re-introduce keystone species.”

For nearly a decade Rezatec has pioneered geospatial analytics to help water, forestry and agriculture leaders across the world manage the integrity of their assets with new insights. Today, we enable forest and agriculture operators to monitor their inventory at scale, alert them to health threats and help them to manage re-forestation and post-fire salvage activities.
In the water sector, we help dam owners, operators and regulators to manage and report on risk, prioritize resources, and keep communities safe. And we bring next-level accuracy to water utility leaders, predicting the highest risk of pipeline failure across entire water networks, enabling them to upgrade infrastructure before breaks occur, cut water loss and repair costs, and justify capital expenditure with new conviction.
Our unique software products, powered by Rezatec’s leading geospatial AI platform, leverage the most comprehensive and robust data sets, combined with world-class AI models and visualizations, making complex data science easy to use.
