Tristan Goodbody, PhD

Tristan earned his PhD and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of British Columbia (UBC), where his research advanced the integration of 3D forest structure data from digital aerial photogrammetry and lidar to improve forest inventories. His postdoctoral work further refined forest management strategies by optimizing structurally guided forest sampling methods. 

In his current role, Tristan provides expertise to identify high-quality nature-based carbon projects. His experience spans carbon projects across North and South America, where he specializes in evaluating carbon claims using satellite data, assessing deforestation trends, and advising clients on leveraging geospatial data for decision-making in the carbon market.

Tristan is passionate about designing and maintaining advanced geospatial workflows that include application of remote sensing techniques to carbon management. His blend of academic and private sector experience has helped him in successfully integrating technology and environmental science to drive effective carbon management solutions.
