Allocated Deforestation Risk Maps: Timetable
The timetable below indicates (1) when Verra has published or anticipates the provisional allocated deforestation risk maps for each jurisdiction (open-access data), and (2) when the final allocated deforestation risk maps and VMD0055-compliant project baseline activity data (VMD0055-compliant data) for each jurisdiction are available in the Verra Project Hub.
Note: The different stages in the data development process (listed under “Current Stage”) are defined as follows:
Description of Status:
- AD Collection: The data service provider (DSP) will determine the jurisdictional baseline activity data (AD) for unplanned deforestation and develop a time series of historical forest cover benchmark maps (FCBMs)
- AD Third-Party Review: The DSP will review the AD and FCBMs for each jurisdiction and compile detailed assessment reports.
- Risk Mapping: The DSP will develop benchmark and alternative jurisdictional deforestation risk maps to be used for AD allocation
- Provisional Allocated Deforestation Risk Map Ready: The provisional allocated risk map for this jurisdiction is available for download and can be used for due diligence purposes.
- Risk Mapping Review – A third-party reviewer will compile a detailed assessment report to ensure that the alternative deforestation risk maps comply with VT0007 requirements and associated best-practices.
- Risk-Allocated Project Baseline AD – the AD has gone through steps 1-5 and is ready to be allocated to projects and can be accessed through the Verra Project Hub. Please reference the PADA fee announcement for information about the costs. At this point, Verra will also release final allocated deforestation risk maps that include all remaining updates.
