Welcome to the TiranaGoesGreen, an Urban Reforestation and Sustainable Transportation Platform! This project leverages space technologies and data from the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite to enhance urban reforestation and promote sustainable transportation. By identifying areas with reduced vegetation and encouraging the use of bicycles, we aim to reduce carbon emissions and foster a greener urban environment.
🏅Proudly awarded third place in the 7th CASSINI Hackathon in Albania.
- Vegetation Monitoring: Uses NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) data from Sentinel-2 L2A to identify deforested regions.
- Tree Planting: Allows users to donate for tree planting in identified areas.
- Cycling Promotion: Encourages the use of bicycles over cars to reduce carbon footprint.
- Carbon Footprint Reporting: Tracks and reports reductions in carbon emissions through tree planting and cycling.
- HTML, CSS, and JavaScript: For building the front-end user interface.
- Python: For server-side processing and data handling.
- Copernicus Sentinel-2 Data: Utilized for vegetation analysis (NDVI Layer).
- Data Collection: The platform uses Sentinel-2 satellite data to analyze NDVI and identify areas with reduced vegetation.
- User Interaction: Users can view areas needing reforestation and choose to contribute through donations.
- Sustainable Choices: Users are encouraged to switch to bicycles for transportation, reducing their carbon footprint.
- Reporting: The platform provides carbon footprint reports based on user actions and contributions.
