Global Forest Watch (an initiative of the World Resources Institute) is an illustration of the power of Google Earth Engine (GEE). 🛰 The tool can be used for simple and user-friendly monitoring and analysis of changes in tree density. Both increase and decrease in forest can be powerfully visualized here over time. 🌳
Zooming in on Limburg for a moment, this quick tool allows us to generate graphs and get an idea about changes in tree density. With a handy play button, you get a video at a glance showing deforestation evolving from the year 2000 to 2021.
