Monitoring severe Amazonas drought

Our EO Innovation Unit actively monitored the severe drought in the Amazonas using Satellite imagery from the European Copernicus program. The Amazon River at Manaus has reached its lowest level in 122 years, with critical impacts on local communities and ecosystems. Thousands are affected by water shortages, and vital transportation routes are blocked. This drought, driven by climate change, is another intense reminder of the challenges we face.

At GeoVille, we are committed to providing crucial data to track and respond to environmental crises. Satellite imagery plays a key role in monitoring these events, offering real-time insights into changing river levels, land use, and vegetation health. Through analyzing satellite data, we can assess the extent of the drought, identify areas most at risk, and support decision-making for disaster response and long-term conservation efforts. These powerful tools help us make informed decisions, protect vulnerable regions, and work towards sustainable solutions for the future.
