How Digital Tools Help Uncover Environmental Stories

1:30pm on Saturday, November 22
KLCC Level 4 - Room 403

About This Session

Environmental crimes routinely involve complex networks spanning remote locations and multiple jurisdictions, making traditional investigation methods challenging. This panel demonstrates how cutting-edge digital tools — including AI-powered satellite analysis, geospatial mapping platforms, and machine learning algorithms — can expose hidden environmental destruction. Attendees also learn practical techniques for cross-referencing environmental data with corporate networks, using satellite imagery for pattern recognition, and building compelling narratives that reveal previously undetectable crimes.
