Abstract Carbon mapping, which is an important component of climate change mitigation methods, presents severe hurdles due to economic and social issues. This article investigates the multidimensional context of these elements and their impact on carbon mapping efforts at the regional, national, and global levels. Investigate whether data availability, sharing, capacity building, stakeholder participation, and economic incentives are important factors in the success of carbon mapping programmes.
Data availability issues come from limits in data collection methodologies and ownership considerations. Standardised protocols and open data projects are being studied as ways to promote data accessibility and collaboration. Capacity building is explored in the context of interdisciplinary education and training, which is critical for addressing skills shortages and fostering collaboration across industries.
Stakeholder interaction highlighted as an essential factor, emphasising the importance of including local opinions and knowledge. To empower communities and overcome power dynamics, participatory mapping methodologies and transparent communication are being investigated. Economic issues such as costs, incentives, and financial constraints highlight the importance of long-term financial models and cross-sector collaboration.
Real-world case studies, such as the Indonesian REDD+ programme and the Global Forest Monitoring platform, have provided insight on how these tactics might be implemented in practise. The research continues by emphasising the interplay of social and economic elements in carbon mapping efficiency. Accurate and comprehensive carbon mapping can assist in informed decision making, policy formulation, and global efforts to mitigate climate change by solving these difficulties.
