To tackle the environmental crisis, we need better data for better decision making about agriculture supply chains.
Today, agriculture and forestry together account for over 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions and are major drivers of soil and ecosystem degradation.
As companies set ambitious targets to address their impact on nature, they face significant supply chain management data challenges. Environmental data for agricultural production systems can be incomplete, inconsistent or too generic to meaningfully identify hot spots and evaluate interventions.
geoFootprint eases the burden of manually collecting and analyzing sustainability metrics by displaying the best sources of publicly-available environmental and crop production data on an intuitive and interactive online world map, delivering granular visibility — down to 10×10 km! — that yields sharper insights for strategic decision-making.

A consistent baseline and robust simulation for public policy, research and stakeholder engagement
With geoFootprint, policy makers, international organizations and non-government organizations can have a consistent footprint baseline for all geographies, access science-based metrics to target interventions, share knowledge and engage local stakeholders. Researchers will gain incredible simulation capacity for climate-smart agricultural practices based on the latest science.
The open-access version of geoFootprint enhances public knowledge on sustainable agriculture by making solid environmental data of key commodity crops accessible to non-expert audiences, students or actors that may not otherwise have access to this information.
