Today, we brought together a panel that discussed how scientists and decisionmakers can use satellite info to better inform decisions in the humanitarian sector. Read a thread of their insights here 🧵
Satellite data offers a powerful tool to inform decisionmaking, but determining how the data can influence decisions can be a little nebula-s. Join @RFFvaluables this Monday as experts explore this issue. 🛰️ buff.ly/3fkemMr
Attaching a value to information is tricky, and it’s even trickier to estimate the value of information yet to be used. This @RFFvaluables explainer looks at how impact assessments can be used to estimate the VOI in these scenarios. buff.ly/3s7SreB #SciComm
What’s a #wetland worth? A new op-ed from @rff Fellow Hannah Druckenmiller for @thehill outlines key findings from her recent research on US wetland value to society—and the estimates may surprise you: thehill.com/opinion/energy…

Landsat 9 was launched into orbit earlier this year to collect detailed imagery of #wildfire impacts, ice-shelf retreat, #deforestation, and more. See the first images of Earth taken by the new satellite: nasa.gov/press-release/… #ChartOfTheWeek @USGSLandsat @NASA_Landsat
Summertime is the peak season for #OutdoorRec—but it’s also peak season for #wildfires. This article evaluates the relationship between the two and provides the first causal estimates of wildfire smoke's effect on recreation behavior. buff.ly/3pwcH7I
#GIS was instrumental in this study on the impacts of #wildfire smoke on #OutdoorRec, enabling researchers to measure the distance between campgrounds and the nearest active wildfire. Read the paper by @jacobgellman, @margaretwalls1 & @mwibbenmeyer here: rff.org/publications/w…
In an analysis of abandoned oil&gas wells, @DanielRaimi, @AlanKrupnick, Jhih-Shyang Shih & @alexndrathompsn look at dozens of factors that could affect decommissioning costs. Researchers used #GIS to gather geospatial data critical to their analysis. rff.org/publications/j…
