  • Water resources — lakes, rivers, reservoirs, wetlands; surface area, water levels, turbidity, pollution indicators
  • Agriculture — crop health, soil moisture, irrigation, harvest prediction, drought stress
  • Wildlife — protected parks, habitat loss, animal migration corridors
  • Climate — surface temperature, vegetation index (NDVI), atmospheric aerosols, carbon emissions proxies
