The role of remote sensing data in providing land monitoring information

Abstract

Over the past three decades, remote sensing technologies have become increasingly valuable for monitoring sustainable land management practices. Remote sensing allows for easy and versatile monitoring through various types of imagery, enabling land planners and managers to make well- informed decisions. This article explores key aspects of using Earth Remote Sensing (ERS) tools, particularly for tracking changes in forested areas. By leveraging satellite-derived time-series imagery, it is possible to monitor large regions continuously, assess forest conditions, and evaluate the impact of various natural and human-induced factors over time. This study presents an analysis of forest changes over a specific period, providing insights into the dynamics and health of these ecosystems.
