Nusantara Atlas.

Nusantara Atlas is a forest-monitoring platform that tracks deforestation across Indonesia. The system provides data and analysis on forest loss in one of the world’s most biologically diverse and threatened tropical landscapes.

Indonesia contains vast expanses of rainforest that support exceptional biodiversity but face pressure from logging, agricultural expansion and palm oil production. Monitoring platforms like Nusantara Atlas make forest change visible through satellite imagery and spatial data, offering governments, researchers and conservation organisations tools to assess the scale and location of forest loss across the Indonesian archipelago.
