Considerations for AI-EO for agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa
With the ever-growing urgency of food insecurity and the threat of climate change, there is increasing interest in using artificial intelligence for Earth observations (AI-EO) for agriculture, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This paper provides an overview of the primary research areas within AI-EO for agriculture in SSA. %(cropland and crop type classification, field boundary delineation, yield estimation, and pest/disease monitoring).…
Earth observations into action: The systemic integration of earth observation applications into national risk reduction decision structures
Purpose As stated in the United Nations Global Assessment Report 2022 Concept Note, decision-makers everywhere need data and statistics that are accurate, timely, sufficiently disaggregated, relevant, accessible and easy to use. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate scalable and replicable methods to advance and integrate the use of earth observation (EO), specifically ongoing efforts within the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) Work Progra…
Impacts of large-scale refugee resettlement on LCLUC: Bidi Bidi refugee settlement, Uganda case study
Uganda is the third-largest refugee-hosting country partly due to its open-door policy—deemed one of the most progressive. When new refugees arrive, refugee settlements are established rapidly, and irreversible changes to the landscape are inevitable. We utilize satellite data to map land cover (LC), land use, and burned area (BA) to assess their relationship in the context of large-scale refugee resettlement in Bidi Bidi—Uganda’s largest refugee…
