| Résumé | |
| Summary | With the use of satellite imagery, remote sensing has been able to visually show in an impactful way the changes that have occurred over the last several decades on our precious and unique Planet Earth. The Atlas of Our Changing Environment illustrates some of the changes that humans have made to the environment in the last decades of the 20th century in all ecosystems, such as in coastal areas, forests and grasslands, and also in urban settings. Since 2005, the year of publication of the first Atlas, changes have continued to occur. The purpose of my internship at UNEP-GRID was to use two technologies able to analyse Earth observations, SEPAL and the Data Cube on Demand (DCoD), and see their potentialities to update and upgrade the Atlas. Although both technologies generate RGB mosaics from satellite imagery the experience when using them are very different from each other. By using SEPAL and DCoD in two same locations in Switzerland I was able to appreciate the positives and negatives of both platforms to be able to suggest my opinion on the way forward for the Atlas project. With the aim of exploring a first possibility of such updates, this work was carried out with the help of the geographic information system software QGIS |
