Water and Soil Viewer: An application focused on the management of natural resources developed on the Google Earth Engine platform
Abstract
Researchers linked water resources and services directly to economic growth and environmental sustainability. In this way, it is essential to store, analyze and understand the water's physical processes. The objective of this work is to identify and validate how the platform Google Earth Engine(GEE) can assist in the analysis of data in water resources. GEE integrates the technologies present in geographic information systems, making it interesting to develop applications aimed at natural resources. We applied the case study of this research to manage water resources of the hydrographic basin of Lagoa Mirim and Canal São Gonçalo. These data could be a powerful tool for the Hydrographic Basin Management Committee to understand better and analyze this region.
