Applications Toolbox
Below are the tools developed and delivered by the SCO projects.
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 9 countries (French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana, Gabon, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Brazilian Amazon).

Anticipating and preventing vegetation fires
ALEOFEU has delivered an operational demonstrator on forest fire risks in the Aude department and the Prométhée zone. Available online and freely accessible, a vegetation fire hazard map assists firefighting personnel and helps raise awareness among the population and land managers about this growing risk.
🟢 Free access
Satellite-based Carbon Mapping for Thailand’s Forest
This Carbon Digital Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) Platform leverages remote sensing technology and artificial intelligence to enhance carbon-related initiatives. It currently provides above-ground biomass (AGB) and carbon stock data for Thailand (2022) across various scales, and will offer English language support by 2026.
🟢 Free access
Mangrove operational monitoring
Developed as part of the Mangroves project, MangMap is a mapping portal for operational satellite monitoring of mangroves, designed for scientists and institutional players working to preserve and enhance this ecosystem.
Based on standardized products produced continuously from Sentinel-2 time series since 2018 (10 m resolution, renewed every 5 days), the platform provides an interactive dashboard of environmental information at local scales and offers services on demand to users. The MangMap 2 project is currently working to expand the portal to new regions and enhance it with new services.
🟢 Free access, you need to create a local account (or use your Theia account) to benefit from the full range of services.
