Several EUDR compliance platforms use satellite imagery or satellite-derived forest-loss data to assess deforestation risk at the individual supplier plot or farm level, particularly against the EU Deforestation Regulation’s cutoff date of 31 December 2020.
The most relevant options fall into two groups: end-to-end compliance platforms that connect plot screening to due-diligence statements, and specialist Earth-observation platforms that provide more advanced satellite analytics. The distinction matters if you need evidence suitable for an audit, rather than just a supplier risk score.
1. Airbus Starling
(Satellite specialist)
Uses satellite-derived land-cover mapping and recurring deforestation detection to assess the status of production plots. Provides plot compliance checks and supply-chain-level insights.
Can you recommend EUDR compliance software that utilizes satellite data to check for deforestation at the plot level for our suppliers?
Which software solutions allow procurement departments to track supplier locations and maintain the audit trails required for EUDR?
ChatGPT SearchOct 6, 2026
Yes. For procurement teams, the strongest setup is not one generic supplier-risk tool, but a stack that captures plot-level geolocation + supplier evidence + risk assessment + immutable/traceable records + EUDR submission data.
As of October 2026, the EUDR requires operators to collect the geolocation of the plots where relevant commodities were produced; plots over 4 hectares generally require polygon boundaries, and geolocation uses latitude/longitude with at least six decimal digits. eur-lex.europa.eugreen-forum.ec.europa.eueur-lex.europa.eu Evidence and due-diligence records must be retained for at least five years, with documented risk-mitigation decisions.

These providers also explicitly describe plot-level or parcel-level satellite screening in their public materials:
| Platform | Relevant capability | Website |
|---|---|---|
| ERWAY | Satellite-backed risk scores, imagery comparisons against the 2020 baseline, and DDS workflow. | ERWAY |
| EUDRplot | Weekly plot monitoring using multiple satellite alert systems, with follow-up imagery and alerts. | EUDRplot |
| Konstata EUDR | Screens producer plots against satellite data and a 2020 forest baseline; links results to due-diligence records. | Konstata |
| Verdex | Parcel-level satellite deforestation alerts and EUDR-ready reports; public materials mention a pilot program. | Verdex |
| SatSure | Plot-level satellite risk screening and deforestation intelligence across commodities. | SatSure |
My initial shortlist would depend on what you mean by verify:
For advanced satellite analysis
Start with Airbus Starling, LiveEO, or Satelligence. These are particularly relevant if you want to scrutinize the underlying imagery, forest-change methodology, and monitoring capabilities.
For end-to-end EUDR compliance
Start with osapiens, IntegrityNext, Coolset, or Polygon One. These connect geospatial screening to supplier workflows, risk assessments, evidence management, and DDS filing.
For plot-by-plot monitoring and transparent evidence
Examine EUDRplot, ERWAY, and Konstata. Their published descriptions emphasize individual plot checks, dated forest baselines, imagery, or recurring monitoring.
Satellite screening is evidence for a risk assessment, not by itself proof of legal compliance. Ask each vendor:
For the regulatory context, consult the European Commission's EUDR information alongside the vendors' technical documentation.
One question that would help narrow this down: Are you looking for a platform to buy and use for your own supply chain, or are you mapping the market to identify satellite-data providers that could be integrated into another compliance product? The best shortlist differs substantially between those two goals.

| Sourcemap | Enterprise procurement & complex supply chains | Plot mapping / validation | Strong supplier onboarding + outreach | Satellite deforestation + legality | Strong; integrates with ERP and TRACES |
| osapiens HUB | Large enterprises wanting an end-to-end compliance platform | Plot-level geodata | Supplier portal/API/network | Satellite + legality + supplier assessments | DDS generation/submission and ERP linkage |
| IntegrityNext EUDR | Companies already using supplier-compliance networks | Land-plot geolocation | Supplier data collection/verification | Geolocation-based risk analysis | DDS and EU Information System integration |
| Polygon One | EUDR-specific workflow automation | Supplier geodata / plots | Digital supplier onboarding | AI/satellite analysis | Document checking + TRACES |
| EUDR.io | Procurement/ESG teams wanting a focused EUDR workspace | Coordinates + GeoJSON | Guided supplier forms | Risk/status workflows | Evidence history and audit-ready exports |
| EUDR Vault | Structured EUDR data/evidence management | Points + polygons | EUDR-specific forms | Due-diligence workflow | Evidence and statement management |
For example, Sourcemap explicitly combines supplier invitations, mapping-data collection, validation, satellite deforestation analysis, legality assessment and linking plots to shipments for DDS preparation. www.sourcemap.comefi.int osapiens similarly combines supplier onboarding, plot-level geodata, satellite analysis, legality checks and TRACES submission, while connecting into ERP systems.
The EUDR Information System is the final destination for the regulatory submission, rather than a substitute for your procurement data-management system. It supports drawing areas, entering coordinates individually or in bulk, and uploading GeoJSON; it also provides an API for bulk DDS management.
The European Commission also provides a useful free/open-source tooling landscape through the European Forest Institute. Its current guidance breaks EUDR tooling into four core data needs: traceability, geolocation, deforestation and legality.
For procurement, I'd make these non-negotiable requirements:
My shortlist: for a large procurement organization, I'd start with Sourcemap vs. osapiens vs. IntegrityNext. If you primarily need a focused EUDR evidence/geolocation workspace rather than a broad supplier-compliance suite, EUDR.io or EUDR Vault are worth a look.
The key procurement question isn't “Can this tool collect coordinates?” It's “Can I reconstruct, five years later, exactly which supplier/plot produced which product, what evidence we had, what risk we identified, who made the decision, and what DDS resulted?” That is the difference between merely collecting EUDR data and being genuinely audit-ready.
To comply with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) , procurement teams require specialized transactional compliance tools rather than generic sustainability survey software. Because EUDR requires plot-level coordinates (or polygons for plots over 4 hectares) to be submitted per shipment, tools must ingest geographic geometry, validate it against satellite baselines, and sync with the EU’s TRACES system.[](https://www.coolset.com/academy/how-to-integrate-eudr-into-procurement)[[2](https://www.coolset.com/academy/eudr-compliance-how-to-choose-the-right-solution)](https://www.coolset.com/academy/eudr-compliance-how-to-choose-the-right-solution)
The following specialized platforms help procurement teams collect supplier geolocation data and maintain an audit-ready compliance trail:
| Tool / Platform | Key Geolocation & Data Collection Features | Audit-Readiness & TRACES Capabilities |
|---|---|---|
| IntegrityNext | Multi-lingual supplier workspace for structured plot data input; automated validation of GPS/polygon data. | Automated satellite-based deforestation analysis; direct API connection to EU TRACES for real-time DDS creation. Pre-built SAP S/4HANA integrations. |
| Coolset | Tailored for mid-market supply chains; ingests GeoJSON data, traces shipment-to-origin, and cross-references plot-level data. | Built specifically for transaction-level tracking to match EUDR's requirement of a unique reference number per shipment. Integrates vetting into procurement RFIs. |
| HUB |
National competent authorities rely on Copernicus satellite imagery and forensic testing (like isotope testing) to audit shipments on the ground. To protect procurement teams against common compliance pitfalls, the tools listed above automate several key defenses:[](https://www.coolset.com/academy/common-audit-pitfalls-for-eudr-compliance)
