Amazon Deforestation Trends

This animation begins by showing the similar sizes between the country of Brazil and the United States. It then cycles through over three decades of classification data for the entire Northern half of Brazil. We then zoom down to the town of Novo Progresso and compare its relative size to the San Francisco Bay region. Next we cycle through over three decades of transformation in the region showing how the north/south corridor of this region changed over time. Lastly, we fade in 2019 fire data to indicate how the data will continue to change into the upcoming year. || novo_progressov_finalcomp.2009_print.jpg (1024x576) [287.1 KB] || novo_progressov_finalcomp.2009_searchweb.png (320x180) [105.7 KB] || novo_progressov_finalcomp.2009_thm.png (80x40) [7.3 KB] || novo_progressov_finalcomp_1080p30.mp4 (1920x1080) [48.9 MB] || frames/1920x1080_16x9_30p/example_composite/ (1920x1080) [128.0 KB] || novo_progressov_finalcomp_1080p30.webm (1920x1080) [7.9 MB] ||
