WHAT IS WWF-SIGHT?

WWF-SIGHT is a global intelligence platform which aims to provide an up-to-date high-level understanding of what’s happening on the ground.

WWF-SIGHT allows users to bring together diverse spatial datasets and combine them with satellite imagery to provide a near real-time high-level understanding on the current status of conservation assets around the globe.

Right now, WWF-SIGHT is not publicly accessible.
