MOBILE Revolution Village Forest Monitors (Greater Gombe Ecosystem Project - 2005)
GPS limitations • In one year 16 FMs collected more than 36,000 observations; • Most of the attributes were on paper and not feasible to be digitized; • Need for a different mobile data collection approach.

Google Earth Engine Data Catalog • Daily global satellite feeds for current data • 40 years of historical data (thanks NASA and USGS!) – Landsat and MODIS satellite data – Elevation data – Atmospheric data
– And more…
• Upload your own imagery with Maps Engine • Everything in original projection – With all bands and metadata 66
