The gap between promise and delivery

Use the toggle below to switch between the “Before” the real-life ICEYE SAR image, showing no deforestation, and the “After” image, where ICEYE’s detected illegal deforestation activity. Enforcement agencies need reliable, evidence-backed detections, not just promises of imagery. Traditional data sources make promises about revisit and coverage, to be left with in-actionable clouded images.

Clear cuts in North Kalimantan Province, Indonesia. SAR data enables early detection of new paths in the forest. Deforestation site often starts with a straight line, cutting deep into the forest. This path is then usually expanded into a rectangle with clear cuts. Such line can also indicate building of new roads, airstrips or illegal mining sites organized in the forest areas.
