Monitoring tropical deforestation

The Tropisco platform provides a near-real-time view of tropical deforestation from 2018 to the present day. Its maps of forest cover loss are updated every 6 to 12 days using radar images from the Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellite.

Aiming for global coverage, Tropisco currently monitors the forests of 7 countries (French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana, Gabon, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia), which were used to develop the tool.

Monitoring territorial dynamics

Developed in the Mato-Grosso region (Brazilian Amazon), the Chove-Chuva demonstrator offers a map-based summary of the territorial dynamics observed in relation to the adaptation and mitigation strategies put in place.

Using multisource data, the tool can produce a 'dashboard' of the territorial situation for an area predefined by a user, based on synthetic indicators covering 4 major themes: climate (rainfall), forest cover, water (hydrology) and agriculture (surface area and practices).
