MarianaTerra is BTG’s AI agriculture initiative for oil-palm estates. It is being designed to bring autonomous field mapping, per-tree records and estate-level insight into one connected view.

THE ESTATE INTELLIGENCE CHALLENGE
Move from occasional checks to a clearer, repeatable view.
Large plantations are difficult to inspect consistently. Field teams have to cover wide areas, while managers often work with periodic surveys and block-level summaries.
MarianaTerra is being developed around a different approach: use ground-level sensing and AI-assisted analysis to build a geo-referenced record of estate conditions, with each tree as a point of reference.
HOW MARIANATERRA IS DESIGNED
Field signals become
useful estate context.
The planned workflow connects autonomous ground surveys, spatial data, AI analysis and a manager-facing view—so field teams can check the right places and learn from changes over time.
ASSESS
Read tree-level signals
Spatial measurements and imagery can support AI-assisted records for tree condition, visible anomalies and changes that need agronomist review.
Per-tree record · Health indicatorsPRIORITIZE
Focus follow-up
A digital estate view is intended to help managers locate flagged trees, review context and plan field checks with better information.

Compare over time
Repeated surveys can build a history for each mapped tree, helping teams follow trends and evaluate where intervention may be needed.
Survey history · Time-series viewESTATE DIGITAL TWIN
One map for the field and the management team.
The proposed platform connects mapped trees, survey history and review flags in a web dashboard. Estate staff can move from an area-level view into an individual tree record and its latest observations.
- Browse estate blocks and survey coverage.
- Review mapped trees and items flagged for follow-up.
- Compare observations across survey dates.
- Bring field findings back into the estate record.

START WITH OIL PALM
Designed for estate realities. Built to learn from the field.
MarianaTerra’s first focus is oil-palm estate monitoring in Southeast Asia. The concept can be evaluated through a focused pilot, with system configuration and performance validated in the operating environment before broader rollout or adaptation to other crops.
