Big news: we closed $14M in Series A funding, led by @BCapitalGroup, and are welcoming @nature_org to our investor family. 🌱We're doubling down on tech and trees, helping utilities to safely and reliably power the world. https://t.co/Q66T15fS3W
⚡Today, we partner with 40+ utilities globally, including 4 of the top 10 US utilities, helping to reduce wildfire risk and improve grid reliability worldwide. So far, we’ve monitored 2M+ acres of land and protected $6B in utility assets. And we’ve only just begun.
Our satellite imagery partners give us the bird's eye view we need to build the machine learning algorithms that fuel Overstory's veg intelligence.
Get a peek behind the scenes in this story with @UP42_ . 👀
NEW CASE STUDY: As #wildfire risks grow, @overstoryai uses #satellite imagery + #MachineLearning to prevent🌲⚡️damages. To train their #AI model, they needed to find the sweet spot with price, resolution, and delivery speed of different types of data... https://t.co/kO9esPM336
Today, on Lineworkers Appreciation Day, we celebrate the dedicated folks who work tirelessly day and night to power our lives.
Thank you—from the bottom of our hearts—for everything you give to your work and to your community.
4. How other teams like his can get their GIS data in shape to start optimizing vegetation management, asset inspection, and maintenance programs.
Read the blog and watch the interview: https://t.co/r7oXcwVO8j
Delaware Electric Cooperative built a best-in-class GIS data set with just a 3-person team. 🏆
In a chat with GIS manager "Doc", we found out how they did it and how they use that data to optimize their other programs. https://t.co/r7oXcwVO8j
He shared:
"Our mission is to get a better overview of the world’s natural resources...to make better decisions about...the climate crisis and [related] environmental problems." -CTO/co-founder, @graphific
🔖 How we reach smarter solutions with ML & satellites: https://t.co/Z62XWVvq2b
The climate crisis is the most important challenge of our time, and we're fortunate to work with great investors like @MoxxieVentures who dig in and work alongside us to solve it.
🌷Back to the fun part: building. Wonderful to spend the day with our portfolio company, @overstoryai, using AI for vegetation management to help prevent wildfires and deforestation.
Honored to have been mentioned in @Techleapnl’s 2023 State of Dutch Tech. Did you catch prime minister @MinPres calling out Overstory’s work in wildfires and biodiversity?

We're helping Colorado's @holycrossenergy improve network reliability and tackle wildfire risk with a transition to risk-based #vegetationmanagement. 🔥
"I think this something that's viable for the entire industry," says VM supervisor. https://t.co/Hx01FDrLh0
We’ve also welcomed two top 10 US utilities and one of Europe’s largest utilities to our portfolio, along with investor-owned utilities and coops from CA to VA. We’re excited to use this investment to keep building on our hyper-accurate, actionable #vegetationintelligence.
We’re thrilled to share we’ve raised $5.2M in funding to support our fight against the #climatecrisis.
Led by @convectivecap, this round helps us expand our vegetation intelligence platform, mitigating wildfire risk and preventing power outages.

Record-breaking heat waves, droughts, and tree mortality mean utilities need smarter wildfire mitigation plans to meet reliability and resiliency goals.
Here's how innovative teams (like @holycrossenergy) are making cost-effective wildfire plans work. 👇https://t.co/Yp4L8g6mBY
