Meridia is an AgTech software company headquartered in Amsterdam. It builds tools for field data in agri-commodity supply chains. Its main product, Meridia Verify, checks farm plot data for sourcing and compliance risks.
Verify tests supply chain field data against regulatory and voluntary sustainability frameworks. It flags risks across deforestation, data quality, and legality. Each risk outcome comes with mapped remediation steps. Teams can inspect satellite imagery and reclassify flagged plots. Every change is logged in an audit trail. The platform runs through a portal or an API.
Verify serves procurement and sustainability teams at food and agriculture companies. Use cases include EUDR, DCF, and Scope 3 work. Verify is the engine behind the farm plot data validation methodology of the ICE Commodity Traceability Service. Meridia began as Landmapp. Under that name, it mapped land rights with communities in Ghana, Indonesia, and Côte d'Ivoire.
