Meet Atlas.
Atlas is our Nature Intelligence platform, built to embrace the complexity of life on Earth. Combining ecological science, multi-modal sources, and AI-powered analysis grounded in research-grade data, Atlas helps organizations measure, monitor, and manage nature across space and time. We make nature intelligible without simplifying it.
Bridge the data gap.
Atlas delivers over 30 global indicators — including LemuRank, Biorarity, and CarbonFlux — designed to reveal conservation value, ecological risk, or carbon dynamics across any landscape.
From raw data to action.
We combine indicators and observations with scientific analysis, for each of our client’s zones — delivering validated, contextual, up-to-date intelligence your teams can act on.
Built to grow with you.
Atlas integrates data and models into a unified, time-aware structure we call Spacetime. It’s your single source of truth — incorporating proprietary, public, or client-specific data to expand insight over time.

The Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) comes to Atlas
How much of a place has dense, vigorous vegetation, active vegetation or bare ground, and how that changes month by month since 2020. Atlas calculates it from Sentinel-2 imagery at 10 m.

SMA biodiversity records in Atlas: what was observed, where and when
The species that environmental monitoring has already recorded at a place in Chile, with date and campaign. Atlas gathers the SMA’s public records as a starting point for an assessment or fieldwork.

Evapotranspiration in Atlas: how much water the land returns to the atmosphere
Where a landscape returns more or less water to the atmosphere, and how that changes across seasons and years. Atlas estimates it as context for irrigation, restoration or water availability.

Atlas 1.6.0: new ways to explore, download and share nature information
Take what Atlas shows about a place into a report or to a colleague: 2D maps with their context, each indicator’s resources and links that keep your analysis. Now in English too.

CMF NCG 519: Chile’s new reporting requirement
From 2027, companies supervised by Chile’s Financial Market Commission (CMF) must report on sustainability under the IFRS S1/S2 standards. We explain what the rule is, who it applies to, and why the real challenge comes before the report.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Frequently Asked Questions.
Nature Intelligence, demystified.
What is Lemu?
Lemu is a Nature Intelligence company. We provide the data and tools organisations need to see nature clearly — in their operations, supply chains, and decisions. Powered by ecological science, satellite imagery, and ethical AI, our platform helps close the nature data gap so companies can measure what matters, comply with new regulations, and lead in the nature-positive economy.
“Lemu” means forest in Mapudungun, the language of the Mapuche in Patagonia.

What is Nature Intelligence?
Nature Intelligence is the ability to understand, measure, and act on the state of the natural world. It brings together data from satellites, sensors, science, and fieldwork to make ecosystems visible — and actionable. Like Business Intelligence transformed how companies make decisions, Nature Intelligence gives organisations the insight they need to operate within planetary boundaries, meet new regulations, and lead in a nature-positive economy.
What kind of indicators does Atlas offer?
Atlas offers a curated set of over 30 global indicators that reveal biodiversity value, ecological risk, carbon dynamics, and more. These include proprietary metrics like LemuRank, Biorarity, and CarbonFlux — alongside additional indicators covering vegetation, water, air quality, climate, and human development. All indicators are research-grade, traceable, with published methods, and designed to support real-world environmental decisions.

What information does the Lemu Nge satellite capture?
Lemu Nge captures hyperspectral imagery of natural ecosystems with a ground resolution of up to 4.75 metres. Its 32 spectral bands allow us to analyse vegetation health, detect key plant species — including trees and invasives — and monitor changes in land use, habitat quality, and ecosystem composition. This data feeds directly into our indicators and helps reveal some of the most overlooked, data-poor, and ecologically vital environments on Earth — including wetlands, forests, and coastal zones.

How does Lemu support on-the-ground nature action?
Lemu works with a global network of verified nature service providers to support action where it matters most. From environmental DNA or water sampling and drone-based forest surveys to rewilding projects and ecosystem restoration, we connect your organisation with field-proven partners across 30+ countries and five continents. Every service is traceable, science-backed, and aligned with your goals — and most are integrated directly with Atlas, so you can measure impact over time.
What’s the difference between TNFD, SBTN, GBF, CSRD, and ESRS — and why does it feel like nature runs on acronyms!?
If you’ve ever wondered whether TNFD, SBTN, GBF, CSRD, and ESRS are distant cousins or sworn enemies, you’re not alone. The world of nature and sustainability does have a habit of speaking fluent acronym. To make sense of it, we created Alphabet Soup — Lemu’s living glossary of all the frameworks, standards, and acronyms that shape Nature Intelligence.
