Interactive NDVI Map

  • NDVI  = Normalized Difference Vegetation Index
  • NDVI is a measure of the state of plant health based on how the plant reflects light at certain frequencies (some waves are absorbed and others are reflected) due to chlorophyll
  • NDVI is a fancy name for simple formula = (NIR – RED)/ (NIR + RED),  where 
  •      NIR  =  reflection in the near-infrared spectrum (around 832.8-864.7 nano meters)
  •      RED =   reflection in the red range of the spectrum (around 664.6 nano meters)
  • Draw a shape and wait for the NDVI Analysis Chart to be generated
  • Check Layers to see how NDVI looks like

Satellite Monitoring Meets Import Compliance

Understand how environmental monitoring and customs compliance work together to ensure transparent and legal supply chains in the EU.

Import compliance and supply chain transparency

While satellite monitoring tools like NDVI help detect environmental risks and deforestation, companies involved in international trade must also ensure full legal compliance when importing goods into the European Union.

For example, businesses importing timber, agricultural products, or raw materials are required to obtain an EORI number, which is mandatory for customs clearance across the EU.

To better understand the process and avoid delays, you can explore practical guides on the EORI Import blog.
