Crafting mines from satellite images | Research …
Crafting mines from satellite images. Mining of coal, metals and other minerals causes loss of natural habitats across the entire globe. However, available data is insufficient to measure the extent of these impacts. We mapped more than 57,000 km² of mining areas over the whole world using satellite images. Published in Research Data.
