Quiet Planet

The COVID-19 outbreak and the resulting social distancing recommendations and related restrictions have led to numerous short-term changes in economic and social activity around the world, all of which may have impacts on our environment. Your challenge is to use space-based data to document the local to global environmental changes caused by COVID-19 and the associated societal responses.

the earth's another vision

Summary

NASA agency that informed us that there is a significant decrease in the rate of air pollution as there is a reduction of no2 gas in that period and learned about the effect of home commitment on the atmosphere so we analyzed these data and income on (Neo) site where we can see satellite images For the atmosphere and monitoring the changes, and we noticed a decreasing on ozone and water vapor ratios by comparing the photos, which confirmed COVID-19 effect on the weather changes in these days.

How We Addressed This Challenge

We have analyzed the data we collected from space agencies, which confirmed the presence of changes in the percentage of NO2 gas, which made us monitor the components of the atmosphere through the satellite data of the agencies, and analyzed the results that ultimately proved the local and global impacts of COVID-19, thus the space data have documented those changes and this is the challenge

How We Developed This Project

We chose this challenge Because we found that it is important, interesting and beneficial at this time that COVID-19 spread on earth that we take advantage of outer space and seek the help of as an attempt to save the Earth, as we seek the help of the achievements of space agencies that are monitored from the satellites to explore the Earth's changes and reduce risks.

I studied the problem with all the details and then analyzed it to different topics, and then I started solving each of them separately and put my focus on covering all the points and then I have used the resources provided by NASA and other agencies where I developed my project by observing some of the satellite images in which the atmosphere was monitored and compared between them as evidence for the terrestrial observations that I found, and I use many of their research to understand how to analyze spatial data to conclude or confirm Phenomena on Earth and used their data to do that documentation.

We faced some obstacles during the planning, such as the inability to link the current events directly to the data, but we analyzed it so that we can finally link them in some way in addition to collecting agency data with each other, which was after a difficult thing and one of our achievements was to reach the NASA site (NEO) that allowed us Monitor the space data directly from the monitoring images before and after the spread of the virus to ensure that it has a factor in those changes that occur on the ground
