OpenAtlas and CommonShare have partnered to deliver a unified platform for EUDR compliance, combining satellite-based deforestation monitoring with verified supply chain traceability to help companies meet EU sustainability regulations.

OpenAtlas and CommonShare Partner for EUDR Compliance May 20, 2025 – New York, USA - OpenAtlas, a leader in satellite-based environmental monitoring, and CommonShare, an AI-powered traceability and sustainability platform, have announced a strategic partnership to provide an integrated solution for companies facing compliance challenges under the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). This partnership combines geospatial intelligence with dynamic supply chain traceability to help companies navigate the evolving landscape of regulatory sustainability obligations.

Meeting EUDR Head-On with a Unified Approach

As the December 30, 2025, compliance deadline for the EUDR takes full effect, companies must demonstrate that products placed on the EU market are not linked to deforestation or forest degradation. OpenAtlas and CommonShare will integrate their respective strengths - real-time deforestation detection and verified supply chain traceability - to create a seamless, actionable compliance platform.

Delivering Actionable Intelligence from Satellite to Supply Chain

This partnership addresses two critical dimensions of EUDR compliance:

  • Monitoring: OpenAtlas provides satellite-based detection of land-use changes and deforestation activity, offering companies early warnings and risk scoring on sourcing regions.

  • Traceability & Documentation: CommonShare connects sourcing insights to specific purchase orders and product lines, allowing businesses to document compliance at the product, facility, and transaction level.

Together, OpenAtlas and CommonShare empower companies to take immediate, informed action across their supply chains - from farm to final product - backed by real-time data and verified claims.

  • “Our technology shows what’s happening on the ground—deforestation events, land-use changes, and environmental risks in real time. By combining that with CommonShare’s supply chain visibility, we’re helping businesses close the loop: from identifying risk to proving compliance with clear, verifiable documentation.’” Harry Marshall, CEO & Co-Founder of OpenAtlas

  • “This partnership allows us to bring context and proof to EUDR reporting. By tying deforestation alerts to verified supplier and product data, we offer brands a faster, smarter path to compliance.’” Martin Smith, CEO & Co-Founder of CommonShare

Supporting Sustainable Business Growth

With increasing pressure on companies to demonstrate environmental responsibility, the combined offering supports not only compliance but also long-term ESG strategy, stakeholder trust, and competitive differentiation.
