Verification

Check a credential

Someone has shown you an EcoIntel Land Health Credential. This page tells you whether it is genuine, whose land it describes, and whether it still stands.

Not sure what one of these is? Start here.

Look it up by its code

Every credential carries a short code, shown on the status badge next to the QR square. Type it in below.

Ten characters. Letters and numbers only, and a pasted link works too.

Or check the credential file

If you have been given the credential file itself, this checks it figure by figure and confirms nothing in it has been altered since we issued it. The check happens on your own device. The file is never uploaded, logged or stored.

What this proves

  • It really came from us. Every credential is signed with a private key only EcoIntel holds. This page checks that signature against the matching public key we publish.
  • Nothing has been changed. A credential carries a fingerprint of its own contents. Alter a single figure, date or name and the fingerprint no longer matches, and the check fails.
  • Nothing leaves your device. The check runs in your browser. We keep no public register of our clients' figures, so what you see is what the holder chose to share.
Technical details

Credentials are signed with Ed25519 over a SHA-256 digest of their canonical contents. The corresponding public key is published as a JSON Web Key Set at /.well-known/jwks.json and matched by key ID, so the key embedded in a credential is only ever a convenience copy and is rejected if it disagrees with the published one. Verification uses the browser's Web Crypto API. Keys are rotated by publishing the new one alongside the old until credentials signed with the old key expire.

A credential is an independent, satellite-evidenced baseline of a property's ecosystem condition and carbon. It is verification-ready evidence: where a scheme or buyer wants formal third-party assurance, it is the one step that gets you there.

What a Land Health Credential is: what it attests, what it deliberately does not claim, who decides how much of it is visible, and how a farm, grower or timber business attaches one to what it sells. Also Trust and security.
