Please see the animated GIFs below for some great examples of what is possible using the Google Earth Engine platform.
Google Earth Engine brings together the world’s satellite imagery — trillions of scientific measurements dating back over 40 years — and makes it available online with tools for scientists, independent researchers, and nations to mine this massive warehouse of data to detect changes, map trends and quantify differences on the Earth’s surface. Applications include: detecting deforestation, classifying land cover, estimating forest biomass and carbon, and mapping the world’s roadless areas.”
Google Landsat Earth Engine images were used to create the Global 15m Cloud-free Earth, and are published as the global satellite imagery basemap in Google Earth and Maps, on desktop, web, tablets and phones. These are viewed by more than a billion users every month!
