From the total of 42 counties of Romania, we studied the deforestation in the top 11 counties with the biggest deforested area, so that each of the 11 detectives could analyse in detail the evolution of deforestation for the territorial administrative unit allocated and provide the team relevant information to the analysis of the change of seasons (deforestation dynamics, structure at subnational level 2, and recent images captured by the Sentinel 2 A Satellite).

We have improved the use of advanced tools such as Sentinel EO Browser. We gained knowledge about the syntax of Sentinel Hub EO Browser scripts. We want to apply these skills that allow people to browse, analyse and view satellite data in real time in future projects and by participating in the Sentinel HUB Custom Script Contest in the field of analysis of this project.

  • WHY TOP 11?

We chose to do the top 11 counties sorted by tree cover loss because we are 11 team members, so each of us collected data about one county. 🙂
