Amazon Mining Watch uses machine learning to map the scars of gold mining activities in the Amazonian countries. By analyzing historical satellite images, this tool tracks the fast-paced growth of open-pit mining in the largest rainforest in the world. This database is here to help journalists, activists, and researchers better understand the drivers and impacts of subsistence mining.
