This webinar brings together experts from Land & Carbon Lab, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab, the University of Maryland’s GLAD Lab and the Bezos Earth Fund to showcase the latest advancements in near-real-time vegetation monitoring. With DIST-ALERT now integrated into Global Forest Watch, this cutting-edge, free and publicly available tool provides global alerts for vegetation disturbances at a 30×30-meter resolution, detecting changes across forests, grasslands, crops and more.

Learn how to access and apply DIST-ALERT data to monitor land disturbances caused by human activities such as deforestation and agricultural expansion, as well as natural events like droughts and wildfires. This is also an opportunity to preview exciting updates, including forthcoming classification tools designed to distinguish between human-driven and natural disturbances — unlocking greater potential for research, conservation and policy applications. Interested users can take part in the development of these powerful tools as beta testers.

Whether you’re looking to integrate the latest data into your work or explore innovative tools for monitoring land disturbances, this webinar offers valuable insights into the power and potential of DIST-ALERT.
