Description:
The world is changing faster than many people have time to fully understand. The lives of people around the globe are constantly being shaped, affected and challenged by various built environment anthropogenic factors such as density, noise and greenery as well as natural environment events like snowstorm, extreme heat and thawing permafrost. In order to better grasp the changes and challenges we are facing in this constantly and swiftly changing world, this session is aimed at setting up a venue where scholars can present their latest studies on understanding a variety of natural and built environments’ challenges with the assistance of the geospatial techniques.
This session is part of the AAG Symposium on Geospatial Approaches to Pressing Grand Challenges: Global Pandemics, Climate Change, and Food Security.
