The Google Earth Engine is a sophisticated online tool that uses a multi-petabyte catalogue of satellite imagery and geospatial datasets. The target audience is scientists, researchers, and developers around the world.

Google’s Earth Engine can be used to detect changes, map trends, and quantify differences.

The datasets and over 300 4k pre-rendered videos can be searchable by location, date and theme. You might like to explore bushfires in Australia, deforestation, mining, urban growth and spread, water systems and coastal expansion.
