How Lens Saves Maryland Environmental Trust Time and Money

Maryland Environmental Trust (MET) faced significant challenges in monitoring over 1,000 conservation easements across 22 counties due to limited staff and high travel demands. By adopting Upstream Tech’s Lens platform, MET gained an affordable, remote monitoring solution that delivers high-resolution satellite imagery and customizable data overlays. This allowed the team to streamline workflows, reduce travel by thousands of miles, and make up for months of delayed fieldwork due to COVID-19. With Lens, MET can now monitor vast areas more efficiently and engage landowners with greater insight.
