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.

iEarth

Summary

Our team chose the Quiet Planet challenge because of the possibility of working with the environment. We created the iEarth website, in the Google Earth style, which will serve as a platform that will show the impact of COVID-19 on the environment. It will be possible analyze environmental data from before the pandemic, from the period during the pandemic and projection for the post-pandemic life. We use sites like NASA Earth Science Data, NASA Air Quality as a reference.

How We Addressed This Challenge

Our project offers tools for monitoring environmental laws, studies and data that can help in an analysis of the world before the pandemic and how to proceed with beneficial measures for the future, in addition to showing how we were affected by Covid-19.

How We Developed This Project

we talked through Google Meet and used the skills and knowledge fields of each person on the team to create the website and put the data and information we considered relevant, in addition to always sharing our ideas, proposals and doubts with others. We also talked to our mentor.
