Preventing California’s Catastrophic Wildfires Requires Careful Forest Management
SIG co-developed software to remotely monitor gold mining activity in Colombia. Illegal mining is a driver of deforestation and this project aims to empower authorities to respond quickly and appropriately. CoMiMo, which is available for desktop in both English and Spanish, uses satellite imagery and artificial intelligence to identify threatened areas.
Sustainable Working Forests
CAL FIRE, California’s wildfire response agency, is required by law to produce assessments of the forests and rangelands in the state every seven years. Spatial Informatics Group was contracted to create a chapter of the 2017 assessment relating to modeling the effects of climate change on California’s 32 million acres of forest.
