Monitor any landscape in near real time using our change detection solution.
Your eyes in the sky
Land is changing all the time. To make the best decisions as natural resources managers, you have to keep a pulse on exactly how the land is changing day to day. That’s where Ranger comes in.
Ranger is the AI-powered, subscription-based platform Skytec built to natively integrate with Esri’s ArcGIS ecosystem. With the Ranger platform, you can detect changes in near real time across any landscape, anywhere on Earth.
“If a tree falls in the woods and no one’s there to hear it, Ranger is there to see it.”
— Andrew Mindermann, Geospatial Operations Manager at Skytec
See Ranger® in action
Land stewards, government agencies, and corporate sustainability teams all use Ranger to gather the environmental intelligence they need to manage land and resources proactively. From catching encroachments early to tracking restoration progress, you can now detect change across any landscape, without dispatching a single field crew.

How this client spotted unauthorized harvests after 2 days on Ranger
Keeping tabs on over 100,000 acres is nearly impossible with a small staff and limited stewardship budget. That was the problem this land conservancy brought to us, so we set them up with Ranger.
Within two days of using the product, they spotted unauthorized harvests on their land and were able to dispatch their team to address the issue before it became an even bigger problem.

Without Skytec and their innovation and ideas, we simply would not be in the leadership position of supply chain visibility that we find ourselves in today.
Jeremy Poirier
Sr Manager Fiber Certification and Sustainability
We’re a small organization with a lot of land. It’s not feasible for us to rely solely on patrolling our boundary lines on foot. With Skytec, we have extra eyes in the sky on our properties basically at all times. We catch issues early and notify state foresters quickly.
Eliot Berz
Executive Director
Skytec gave us the ability to identify our key habitats, such as our mountain bogs, our hemlock groves, our rhododendron, our bluff lines where neotropical bird species are coming through. With Skytec’s help, we decided where to construct our bird laboratory based on where we wanted people to enter our property and where we wanted to conduct our research.

Frequently asked questions
Ranger pricing is based on the acreage you need to monitor, your desired monitoring frequency, and the scope of your project. We work with organizations of all sizes — from small land conservancies to state agencies monitoring millions of acres — and pricing is structured to fit your scale.

Yes. Our Ranger® platform is built on the Esri ArcGIS ecosystem, so an active ArcGIS subscription is required. The good news: most government agencies and enterprise organizations already invest in ArcGIS. If you don’t have an active ArcGIS subscription, we are authorized resellers and can get you up and running quickly.
Yes. We offer discounted pricing for qualifying nonprofit and conservation organizations. We believe limited budgets shouldn’t limit your ability to steward the land you protect. Contact us to learn more about nonprofit pricing eligibility.
