High-Resolution Satellite Imagery and the Conflict in Chad and Sudan


AAAS, in conjunction with Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and the Genocide Intervention Network, has been monitoring and documenting the violence in 28 locations throughout the Darfur region of Sudan and eastern Chad since 2006. Based on satellite imagery of these areas, seventy-five percent showed destruction of villages and/or the growth of camps for internally displaced persons. These and other images have been used in Amnesty's Eyes on Darfur website as well as provided to the International Criminal Court and featured in various other advocacy and investigation efforts.
