Regulation and Compliance

Protect and manage natural habitats

The effects of pollution, land-use change and exploitation of natural resources are having a noticeable impact on forests, wetlands and other ecosystems. However, with Earth Observations, cities and governments have a tool to better manage and protect the environment around them. 

With high-frequency imagery, governments can:

• Monitor the health of lakes, rivers and reservoirs
• Measure forest conditions, detect illegal deforestation and vegetation health
• Analyse wildlife habitats and land use patterns to inform regulations
   

Plan for infrastructure development and urbanisation

Data and content from multiple Earth Observation tools can be integrated with GIS tools to make it simple to map new developments and dynamic ground conditions. EO Data Science through their parent company, NGIS, has a successful history of creating EO and GIS solutions for government infrastructure projects. 

Integrated solutions can help governments:

• Monitor new transport infrastructure and construction developments
• Keep track of urban sprawl, city growth and human activity impact
• Ensure regulatory compliance of urban, vegetative and geological sites of interest

 

React to natural disasters when they happen

Help first responders, governments and aid agencies process and respond to natural disasters through the availability of daily imagery. 

• View damage in affected areas and plan evacuations with regularly updated imagery
• Analyse before and after photos to assess damage and contribute to rebuilding efforts
• Easily detect change and deploy on-the-ground resources safely
