Pantanal Wildfires Analysis: Mapping Burn Severity for EIIW

For the European Institute for International Economic Relations under Prof. Welfens, we undertook a project focusing on the extensive fires in the Pantanal region, spanning Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay. We utilized Copernicus Sentinel 2 and CAMS data to analyze the burn scars and classify the severity of the burns, especially in Southeast Bolivia. This region, including the unique Otuquis National Park, features diverse ecosystems like rainforests, dry forests, savannas, rivers, and swamps. Our study provided detailed insights into the impact of these fires on this ecologically rich area.
