Journal for Geographic Information Science
Geospatial Minds for Society
In this extended abstract the authors examine advantages and limitations of the use of Earth observation (EO) data for the assessment of environmental impact in the surroundings of refugee/internally displaced person (IDP) camps. Different methodological approaches on multiple spatial scales to identify environmental changes are evaluated and discussed. Thereby different influencing factors such as phenological stages, inter-annual climatic variability, as well as climate change are deliberated. Furthermore, consideration of needs and demands are made.
