Google Cloud introduces carbon footprint tracker, satellite imagery suite
- ByStartupStory | October 14, 2021
Alphabet’s Google will tell its cloud customers about the carbon footprint of their cloud use and will open satellite TV for PC images to them for the first time for EA purposes, as part of efforts to help companies monitor and reduce their carbon budgets.
The new options are among the newsletters Google Cloud wrote Tuesday to kick off its annual buyer conference, which was held almost this year due to the pandemic.
Major Western cloud distributors, Google, Microsoft and Amazon have been competing for sustainable options for years. They intend to serve businesses that are under pressure from stakeholders to rethink their operations in the context of local climate change.
Google’s new carbon-reporting software, like the one Microsoft has made available, discloses emissions from electric power used for information on sellers and buyers. In addition, Google will now notify customers when they lose power from inactive cloud providers.
The new mapping provider, Google Earth Engine, has been used since 2009 by tens of hundreds of researchers, governments and advocacy teams. But Google is now giving companies access to the service, which contains many key geospatial datasets that correspond to Landsat and the desired software. to analyze them. Amazon has an identical initiative.
“We’ve now realized that it applies to many of these business opportunities,” said Jen Bennett, CTO, Google Cloud.
Earth Engine can help ensure chains are durable and predict walking difficulties due to extreme weather, according to Google. Unilever Plc, which has assessed its expertise over the past 12 months, has been scrutinizing its palm oil sources in Indonesia, although it has not been possible to know whether or not this has led to changes in market practice.
