El desafío

Medellín's famous green corridors need expansion and connection. The municipality wants to identify priority areas for new corridors that would link existing parks and natural areas while providing heat relief and habitat connectivity.

Nuestro enfoque

Scoping phase. Will combine vegetation mapping with network analysis to identify optimal corridor routes.

Impacto

Project in early scoping.

Notas técnicas

Will use graph-based connectivity analysis on vegetation patches derived from Sentinel-2.
