# Welcome to Carbonleap

Carbonleap is an advanced agricultural intelligence platform designed to help growers monitor crop performance, anticipate field issues, and make confident, data-driven decisions throughout the season.

The platform integrates satellite analytics, hyperlocal weather, crop modeling, and AI-powered insights into a unified system that delivers consistent, objective, and actionable field intelligence.

### What Carbonleap Does

Carbonleap transforms raw environmental and field-level data into clear operational signals. Key capabilities include:

#### Satellite-Driven Crop Monitoring

Track vegetation vigor, canopy development, moisture conditions, and early signs of stress using indices such as NDVI, NDMI, NDRE, and MSAVI.

#### Hyperlocal Weather Intelligence

Access a 7-day forecast sourced from the most accurate nearby weather stations. Weather data influences alerts, crop modeling, and risk assessment.

#### Phenological and Growth Stage Modeling

Carbonleap uses ten years of hyperlocal weather history to construct a dynamic phenological calendar. This includes:

* GDD-based growth stage estimation
* Daily GDD accumulation
* Forecasted 7-day GDD

#### Smart Agronomic and Operational Alerts

The system detects conditions such as water deficit or optimal spray windows by analyzing satellite imagery, weather trends, and field-level patterns. Alerts include clear recommendations to guide next actions.

#### Farm and Field Management

Every farm in Carbonleap operates as an isolated data environment, allowing growers to manage:

* Field boundaries
* Crops and varieties
* Subscription plans
* Analytics
* Team access

#### Mobile App and Offline Note Capture

Capture field observations offline, and Carbonleap automatically structures and organizes them when your device reconnects.
