Research on the impact of armed conflicts on the environment

We provide an advanced service focused on assessing the environmental impacts of armed conflicts using time-series optical satellite data. Our research includes land cover change detection, with a focus on deforestation, fire and windthrow identification, urban expansion, and increases in impervious surfaces. By leveraging state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms and cloud-based solutions (e.g., Google Earth Engine), we enable fast, scalable, and automated detection of environmental changes across time and space. These analyses offer critical insights into environmental degradation and the effects of warfare on both urban and natural landscapes.
