Land use, management & change
Translating complex environmental data into practical insight for land-use decision‑making
Environmental intelligence (EI) plays a key role in understanding and guiding land use, management and change.
By integrating earth observation, geospatial data, land-use models and predictive analysis, EI reveals how land is being used, how it is changing over time, and the drivers and consequences of those changes.
This supports more informed planning and management across agriculture, development, forestry, and conservation—helping balance economic needs with environmental sustainability, reduce land degradation, manage competing demands, and steer land‑use change in ways that are resilient to climate, ecological, and social pressures.
Land use, management & change related EI application areas include:
· Environmental impact assessment and reporting
· Land-use detection, mapping and monitoring
· Land-use change modelling and impact assessment
· Enhanced mapping and understanding of geology / geological features
· Habitat classification, monitoring and assessment
