Monitoring and interactive mapping of illegal environmental activities on the example of Slovakia
Human activities profoundly impact the landscape, often leading to categorical shifts in land use known as land use/land cover changes (LU/LCC).These changes involve transitions from one type of landscape to another, such as converting meadows into housing developments.Because these alterations can significantly influence the state of the landscape, it's crucial to understand where and to what extent they occur.Legal LU/LCC interventions are typically planned and documented in various official records, including land registries, agricultural plans, forestry documents, and water management plans.However, despite these efforts, the landscape is increasingly vulnerable to unauthorized human encroachment.Such an attack poses challenges for competent authorities to detect, and address caused activities, particularly in remote areas with limited communication accessibility.
