Detecting Deforestation

Inspiration

Imagine an innovative solution that harnesses the power of NLP and object detection to combat deforestation. This system could gather a vast amount of text data from sources like news articles, social media, and official reports to identify mentions and discussions related to deforestation activities in specific regions. Using NLP, it could assess the sentiment and urgency of these mentions, identifying potential deforestation hotspots. Simultaneously, object detection could be employed to analyze satellite images and identify changes in forest cover and illegal logging activities. By merging these insights, the system could generate comprehensive reports on deforestation trends
