Geospatial projects in environmental protection face a number of challenges

Vast areas of interest

Vast areas of interest

As much as 30% of the Earth's surface is covered by rainforest, which speaks to the sheer volume of imagery, which must be monitored to protect vital environmental resources.

Many influencing factors

Many influencing factors

From human activity to changing landscapes to meteorological warning signs, projects aiming to protect the natural environment must monitor and combine many data sources.

Unprecedented events

Unprecedented events

With an extreme acceleration of unpredictable natural events, it isn't easy to perform accurate historical analysis to inform decisions and make predictions in environmental protection projects.
