Research output: Book/ReportOther report

Abstract

[Climate change; urban sprawl; habitat destruction. Our world is changing – and we need to start watching. Scottish organisations are trying to monitor and manage our rapidlychanging world. Scotland is also at the centre of Europe’s “New Space” revolution, with more satellites built in Glasgow than anywhere else in Europe. This project aims to create a roadmap to harness this abundant space data for a Scottish National Land-Use Map, to better monitor, manage, and protect our rapidly changing world.]
