  By Barkare Vedika Nandkishor, Patil Pranjali Mohan, Patil Shubham Dnyaneshwar, Sonawane Pravin Rajesh, S.P. Baviskar

  Abstract: Illegal mining and deforestation represent two of the most severe anthropogenic threats to forest ecosystems worldwide, causing irreversible ecological degradation, biodiversity loss, and accelerated climate change. Traditional ground-based environmental monitoring methods are often slow, expensive, and ineffective for large or remote geographical regions. This paper presents GreenVisionAI, an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered environmental monitoring framework that utilizes multispectral Sentinel-2 satellite imagery accessed through Google Earth Engine for automated detection of deforestation …
