Deforestation SAR
It is an advanced change detection tool for forest monitoring in any climate using SAR radar and machine learning. It processes multi-year satellite data into an RGB image that enables rapid identification of deforestation, regeneration, and land disturbances, even under cloud cover.
It is an advanced change detection tool designed for forest monitoring in any climate using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology. Powered by machine learning, it processes multi-year satellite data into a single intuitive RGB composite image, enabling rapid identification of complex changes such as deforestation, regeneration, and soil disturbance, regardless of cloud cover.
