Floods and droughts are increasing, while groundwater levels decline. Measuring Terrestrial Water Storage helps track these changes.
New research shows how satellites can be used to detect marine litter from space and create a map of the waste in our oceans.
Methane is one of the planet's most dangerous greenhouse gases. A new satellite—the size of a washing machine—is set to provide vital data.
The constellr satellite system with infrared measuring instrument is intended to help make the irrigation of fields more sustainable.
An international team of researchers, using high-resolution satellite data and artificial intelligence, has been able to locate billions of trees growing in the Sahara Desert. The results were published in the journal Nature in October 2020 - and the discovery made headlines around the world. RESET spoke to research group lead Professor Martin Brandt from the University of Copenhagen to find out more.
Many rural off-grid communities would benefit hugely from being hooked up to a solar power system. But which areas are most suitable for solar power installation? And which are most in need? A new earth observation software is using artificial intelligence and satellite imagery to bring power to people more accurately, efficiently and faster than before.
A satellite-based system for the observation of animals can assist in researching infectious diseases, forecasting natural disasters and protecting species.
Satellites armed with artificial intelligence could act as a high-tech early warning system for environmental damage.
Climate change and intensive land use are making it increasingly difficult for shepherds in sub-Saharan Africa to find good grazing land. The AfriScout app is designed to help shepherds identify these crucial areas.
