How Machine Learning Helps Predict Environmental Risk

Environmental problems are often easier to manage when we can spot them early. That is one reason machine learning is becoming useful in conservation. Environmental scientists now work with huge amounts of information. Satellite images, temperature records, rainfall data, pollution measurements, land-use maps, and wildlife observations can all be combined to study how an ecosystem is changing. Machine learning helps make sense of this data. Take deforestation as an example. Satellite images can contain millions of pixels showing forests, roads, farms, rivers, and cities. A machine learning model can be…
