Frontend for VeraCarbon — an independent AI verification platform for carbon credits across MENA and Sub-Saharan Africa. # VeraCarbon **Independent AI verification platform for carbon credits.** Combining satellite remote sensing with large language models to detect fraud in the voluntary carbon market. Live: veracarbon.com Backend: veracarbon-backend --- ## The Problem The voluntary carbon market is a $2 billion industry built largely on trust. Carbon project developers self-report sequestration figures, and certification bodies like Verra and Gold Standard audit them — but independent satellite verification is rarely done systematically. Studies have found that some of the most traded REDD+ credits represent forests that were never at risk, or areas far smaller than claimed. VeraCarbon was built to change that. --- ## What VeraCarbon Does VeraCarbon gives anyone — investors, corporates, journalists, researchers — the ability to independently verify a carbon credit claim against real satellite data in under two minutes. **The verification pipeline:** 1. User submits project coordinates, date range, and an optional PDF project document 2. Backend pulls ESA Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 SAR imagery from Google Earth Engine 3. A 7-pillar Carbon Credit Integrity Score (CCIS) is computed from real satellite measurements 4. Claude AI reads the uploaded PDF and extracts all developer claims 5. Claims are cross-referenced against satellite evidence 6. A fraud probability score, risk classification, and list of specific discrepancies are returned --- ## Pages | Page | Purpose | |---|---| | Home | Platform overview and mission | | Carbon Fraud | Education on how carbon credit fraud works | | Methodology | Full explanation of the CCIS scoring system | | NDVI Tool | Interactive satellite vegetation index explorer | | Case Studies | Real projects run through CCIS — verified and flagged | | Verify a Credit | The main verification tool — submit any project | | About | Project background | | Contact | Get in touch | --- ## Tech Stack | Layer | Technology | |---|---| | Frontend | HTML, C …
