Stora Enso, one of Sweden's largest forest owners, partnered with Sogeti, part of the Capgemini Group, to combat the spread of spruce bark beetles using the Geo Satellite Intelligence (GSI) system. This AI-powered solution analyzes satellite imagery to track bark beetle infestations across 200,000 hectares of forest, significantly reducing manual labor and improving accuracy. The system helps Stora Enso protect timber value, reduce ecological damage, and respond quickly to infestations. The technology has potential for future expansion, allowing Stora Enso to monitor other factors like forest growth and tree species across its global operations.
