About the Company: Founded by Indra den Bakker, Overstory applies Artificial Intelligence (AI) to high-resolution satellite imagery to provide real-time analytics of natural resources. The insights offered on the quantity and quality of natural resources help improve decision-making by electric utility companies, forestry companies, and NGOs. The company’s platform identifies the location, height, health, and species of trees. It then alerts customers on where the riskiest trees are and need to be cut down or pruned because they are at risk of growing into or falling onto the power lines.
