Spatial Variations of Village-Level Environmental Variables from Satellite Big Data and Implications for Public Health–Related Sustainable Development Goals

Background:

Xue Liu published his latest paper, “Spatial Variations of Village-Level Environmental Variables from Satellite Big Data and Implications for Public Health–Related Sustainable Development Goals”, in the journal, Sustainability. This paper assessed child malnutrition in India and accessed several environmental factors that can pinpoint areas with a high rate of child malnutrition by using vegetation indices, land temperature, elevation, and several other variables. This study has the potential to be applied to other similar regions.
