EUDR Analysis

Vantage EUDR analysis helps teams evaluate plots of land against location-specific due diligence criteria from the European Union Deforestation Regulation.

The analysis combines plot geometry, commodity information, harvest date, forest and deforestation signals, protected area context, Indigenous land overlap, and source metadata. Results are available in the Vantage app and through the API.

What Vantage Checks​

The EUDR analysis supports the following due diligence questions:

  • Was forest present on the plot at the regulatory baseline?
  • Has deforestation or forest degradation been detected after the baseline?
  • Does the plot overlap with protected areas?
  • Does the plot overlap with Indigenous lands or territories?
  • What source data and visual evidence support the result?

Protected area and Indigenous land results are provided for transparency and due diligence support. They do not currently change the overall deforestation risk score.

Risk Levels​

Vantage assigns one of three risk levels to each analyzed plot:

  • High: significant deforestation detected, including cases above 15% of plot area or above 1 hectare.
  • Medium: moderate deforestation detected, including cases above 10% of plot area or above 0.5 hectare.
  • Low: no or limited deforestation detected.

Each result includes a risk reason so reviewers can understand why the score was assigned.

Job Lifecycle​

When users run an analysis, Vantage creates an asynchronous job. A job can include one or many plots, and each plot can be assessed once per job.

Jobs move through these states:

  • creating: the job has been registered.
  • pending: analysis is in progress.
  • done: all plots completed successfully.
  • incomplete: analysis is still in progress and at least one plot has failed to complete so far.
  • done-with-errors: the job finished, but some plots failed.

If a job is incomplete or finishes with errors, tokens reserved for plots that did not complete analysis are reimbursed.

Results​

EUDR results include:

  • Plot and analysis summary, including area and analysis dates.
  • Risk level and risk reason.
  • Forest area and forest percentage at baseline.
  • Deforestation area and percentage.
  • Yearly deforestation breakdowns.
  • Protected area overlap details and source metadata.
  • Indigenous land overlap details and source metadata.
  • Visual outputs for review and reporting.

Every job also produces analysis runs per plot. An analysis run records the check type, configuration, status, token cost, timestamps, artifacts, and analysis output for a specific plot execution. This makes re-runs auditable when harvest dates, commodities, or analysis settings change.

In the App​

In the Vantage app, EUDR analysis is started from selected plots in a project. Users can select plots from the table or map, choose an EUDR analysis template, and review resulting risk columns, detail panels, maps, and reports.

In the API​

API users follow the same conceptual workflow: register plots, create an analysis job, retrieve job or plot results, and audit analysis runs. Full endpoint schemas are available in the API Reference.
