Environmental Impact Assessment

In support of increasing environmental regulatory demands, we’ve applied innovative satellite technology to improve the construction planning process and support mitigation activities.

Challenge

As the Red Sea coastline undergoes rapid change, there is a need to understand the status of natural assets at scale and ensure that long term consideration is given to environmental improvements. When combined with the ever-increasing need for decarbonisation and a transition to renewable energy and ecotourism, development that is sustainable is of paramount importance.

Solution

Environmental impact assessments form a crucial part of the construction development process. By utilising satellite earth observation technology, large areas can be monitored remotely to provide the required baseline understanding of natural habitats, vegetation health, and a wide variety of other environmental variables.

Impact

Working alongside various end users, Map Impact’s data science team has supported multiple construction development projects along the Red Sea coastline providing affordable, efficient, and objective solutions to map assets in high detail.
