Verra approves five new data service providers for ARR methodology

Verra has announced the approval of five new data service providers (DSPs) for its VM0047 methodology, which quantifies carbon removals from afforestation, reforestation, and revegetation (ARR) activities. The DSPs will supply stocking index (SI) data, derived from remote sensing, to help projects meet performance benchmark requirements. This move aims to streamline project registration and verification by enabling efficient generation of standardised datasets for upload to the Verra Project Hub. VM0047 versions 1.0 and 1.1 have been approved by the ICVCM as meeting Core Carbon Principles criteria.
