MUMBAI, India, Sept. 28 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621094575 A) filed by Vishwakarma Institute Of Technology on August 04, 2026, for A Distributed Verification And Carbon Credit Generation System For Environmental Restoration Projects.
Inventors include Kanjalkar, Pramod Madhavrao; Kanjalkar, Jyoti Pramod; Dash, Rishika; Patayeet, Radha; Dixit, Siddharth Kapil; Naladkar, Sharang Girish; Pandit, Pushkar Kedar; and Gore, Gaurav Amar.
The application for the patent was published on September 25, 2026, under issue no. 39/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a distributed verification and carbon credit generation system for environmental restoration projects. A mobile data capture module (100) installed on a user device (202) collects geo-tagged environmental evidence comprising GPS coordinates (201), photos/videos (203), and metadata (205). The captured environmental evidence files (111) are stored in a distributed storage network (110) which generates a cryptographic content identifier hash (112) recorded on a blockchain ledger (120) to create an immutable verification record. A spatial verification engine (140) detects overlapping restoration areas to prevent duplicate carbon credit issuance. Oracle data sources (141) comprising drone systems (321), field monitoring records (332), and emission monitoring data (144) are integrated through oracle modules (402, 404) via an oracle communication interface (411) to provide verified data (142). A verifier dashboard (150) enables authorized reviewers to perform review and approval process (151) of submitted restoration evidence. A contract engine (160) performs carbon sequestration calculation (162) and automatically issues carbon credit tokens (170) on the blockchain ledger (120).
