EMSN-065 was activated to support and assist monitoring recovery after the passage of the Category 5 Hurricane Matthew on the 4th of October 2016, over seven selected areas, by analysing environmental aspects such as agriculture activities and forest over protected areas. The geographical focus of this work is the Western area of the Grand’Anse, Haiti, a very badly affected sector. The aim was to build a comprehensive database to support recovery aid organizations in recovery monitoring of the critical resources destroyed. This information is to be used by local governmental organisation and users.Proposed solution and resultsMonitoring of agricultural patterns after Hurricane Matthew, to map tree-cover evolution and landscape changes within agricultural areas (AOIs 1-4-5).Map forestry/tree-cover after Hurricane Matthew and, hence, forestry regeneration over parklands (AOIs 2-3)Map agricultural patterns before and after Hurricane Matthew, to map tree-cover damage and landscape changes within agricultural areas (AOIs 6-7)
