How Google is Mapping 25 Years of Climate Change
In December of last year, Google released its new Google Earth Engine, an application created specifically with scientific research in mind. This new product provides an unprecedented 25 years of satellite images with the goal of enabling more precise climate modeling, based on change studies and mapping trends of the Earth’s environment with a principle focus on identifying areas of deforestation.
This short video does a great job explaining the goals and background of this ground-breaking project.
