Remote Sensing is a cartographic technique often applied by intelligence agencies and military operations. This unique practice shows the vast application of using satellite imagery to track changes in informal land-use, such as deforestation in the Amazon. This analysis uses 7 bands of color in total, although Red, Green, Blue (RGB ) are used most often. The first series of images shows existing levels of built and unbuilt land in 1997, while the second series shows the same site in 2011. The final series shows the resulting deforestation of the Amazon in the selected site.
