Global observing systems for EUDR-compliant monitoring of soya, cattle (indicated as pasture), palm oil, wood (indicated as plantation forest), rubber, coffee, and cocoa plantings at selected hot spot sites, shown in RGB (Google Earth Engine base maps) and classified formats. Note that the images are conceptual representations and not exact depictions of the actual locations. EO data source for classified images was high-resolution Planet-NICFI (4.77 m), and the methodology for processing the maps was based on deep learning models, see details in Masolole et al.14 (Credits: Markus Immitzer and Talita Nogueira Terra Parizzi for photographs and Robert Masolele for https://robertnag82.users.earthengine.app/view/africalu).
