TerraUnits (Silvisite)

Spatial Carbon & Restoration Units for Decision-Grade Accounting

TerraUnits—internally referred to as Silvisite—define spatially explicit units of carbon and restoration value grounded in ecology, not abstraction.

Where traditional accounting collapses complexity into averages, TerraUnits preserve spatial reality.

At a glance
  • Spatially explicit carbon units
  • Ecology-grounded accounting
  • Unit-level metrics for decisions
  • Designed for diligence and MRV

What TerraUnits Solve

  • How do we compare non-uniform landscapes fairly?
  • How do carbon, biodiversity, and restoration benefits vary within a project?
  • How do we move from hectares to decision-relevant units?

What Is a TerraUnit?

A TerraUnit is a spatially bounded analytical unit that integrates:

  • Vegetation structure
  • Landscape context
  • Connectivity relevance
  • Carbon function and risk

It is not just an area—it is a functionally meaningful unit.

Applications

  • Spatial carbon accounting
  • Restoration prioritization
  • MRV stratification
  • Risk-weighted credit interpretation
  • Scenario comparison across landscapes

Outputs

  • TerraUnit / Silvisite spatial layers
  • Unit-level metrics and attributes
  • Aggregation logic for project-scale reporting
  • Maps and tables suitable for diligence and investment review

Who Uses TerraUnits

  • Advanced MRV workflows
  • Landscape-scale restoration planning
  • Investment and portfolio analysis
  • Projects requiring spatial transparency

How TerraUnits Are Used

TerraUnits (Silvisite) are part of Sorus Consulting's internal analytical stack and are deployed within project-specific consulting engagements.

Typically paired with
  • TerraLink (for spatial strategy)
  • TerraMRV (for monitoring and integrity)
