CAMERR

Inside the VCS 4845 design: a 1,055 ha first activity instance, a 2,000 ha grouped restoration aim, a 40-year carbon forecast and proposed field monitoring. These are filed plans, not verified outcomes.

Project geography and imagery

The filed KML is mapped below. The regional photograph is context, not evidence of activity at a filed plot. PDD figures on physical pp. 8 and 29 remain at source because reproduction rights were not established.

Filed geography

Where the first activity instance is filed

Two degraded-area layers in CAMERR’s filed KML cover about 1,055 ha. These are proposed VCS geography, not proof of planting, eligibility validation or the wider 2,000-ha grouped ambition.
