As part of the SERVIR-Amazonia program, the EcoCiencia Foundation, as a local partner in Ecuador, signed a memorandum of understanding with the International Research Center for El Niño Phenomenon (CIIFEN) to generate various tools and services for comprehensive land management. </p> ​<p>To contribute to coastal management and facilitate mangrove monitoring, the EcoCiencia Foundation developed MANGLEE, an open, multi-user tool based on Synthetic Aperture Radar data, optical satellite images, cloud computing (Google Earth Engine), and machine learning. </p> <p><b>​MANGLEE</b> includes data preprocessing for Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2, Random Forest classification (mangrove - non-mangrove), distributed change detection in three modules, and a visualization app. MANGLEE's performance was tested in the Ecuadorian mangroves during the period 2018-2022, resulting in 10-meter coverage maps. </p> ​<p>The maps generated in this service are also available on the APP <a ​https://lorenacaizamorales.users.earthengine.app/view/mangleeapp> MANGLEE </a> </p> ​<p>The methodology and the diffusion workshops can be found at: </p> ​https://sites.google.com/view/mangleetrain/inicioenMangrove ecosystemMangrovePeriod (music)EcosystemCoastal ecosystemGeographyEnvironmental scienceFisheryEcologydataset
