Our solutions

Custom GIS & Habitat Modelling Services

BioSphere’s GIS experts deliver bespoke spatial analyses—species distribution models, habitat suitability maps, and connectivity corridors—tailored to your conservation or development project. Using high-resolution LiDAR, multispectral satellite imagery, and field-collected occurrence data, we calibrate models in MaxEnt or ArcGIS Pro. Deliverables include interactive web maps, printable cartographic reports, and geodatabases compatible with QGIS. Our workflows adhere to Canadian Geospatial Data Infrastructure (CGDI) standards, ensuring interoperability with government and academic systems.

Citizen-Science Program Design & Implementation

We partner with schools, NGOs, and municipalities to launch scalable citizen-science initiatives. From curriculum-linked biodiversity surveys in K–12 to regional invasive-species monitoring networks, our team handles protocol development, training workshops, data management, and participant engagement strategies. We supply hardware (GPS units, cameras, sensor kits), digital toolkits, and data-quality assurance processes. Our turnkey service fosters lasting community involvement and yields publishable datasets that inform policy and conservation planning.

Ecological Impact Assessments & Permitting Support

Developers and land managers can leverage our ecological assessment services to meet regulatory requirements under federal (CEAA) and provincial environmental assessment acts. We conduct field surveys, rare-species habitat evaluations, and cumulative-effects analyses. Our reports include mitigation plans, compensation strategies, and monitoring frameworks. We also prepare permit applications—wetland alteration, species-at-risk authorization—liaising with DFO, provincial ministries, and Indigenous Guardians programs to expedite approvals.

Restoration Project Management & Training

From initial site selection to multi-year monitoring, our restoration specialists oversee all phases of habitat rehabilitation. Services include project planning, community engagement, contractor coordination, and adaptive management. We deliver hands-on training for staff and volunteers in native-plant propagation, erosion control installations, and long-term ecological monitoring techniques. Regular performance evaluations and reporting ensure projects meet biodiversity and ecosystem-service targets.

Environmental Education & Outreach

BioSphere develops customized educational materials—lesson plans, interactive e-modules, field guides, and virtual reality experiences—to foster ecological literacy across age groups. We design school curricula aligned with provincial standards, host teacher workshops, and produce public outreach campaigns via social media, webinars, and local events. Our materials emphasize experiential learning and stewardship ethics, cultivating the next generation of Canadian conservationists.

Data Licensing & White-Label Platform

Organizations can license our full-featured BioSphere platform—complete with mapping tools, data dashboards, and community-engagement modules—under their own brand. We provide customizable UI, multi-language support (English/French), and secure hosting compliant with PIPEDA. Our white-label solution accelerates your launch of biodiversity portals, permitting systems, or educational networks without extensive IT investment. API access and analytics services round out a turnkey offering for impactful ecological initiatives.
