The Amazon Basin is constantly changing and threatened due to large-scale infrastructure development, rapid agro-industrial expansion, natural resources extraction and a fluctuating environment.  Using state-of-the-art geospatial and satellite technologies, SERVIR-Amazonia will empower authorities to track environmental changes in near real-time, evaluate the impact of climatic threats on resources, and rapidly respond to natural disasters. SERVIR is a joint global initiative between NASA and USAID.
