If you've been to Belize but not driven the Hummingbird Highway, you definitely need to revisit. This renowned road leading to the Southern districts is known for its phenomenal views. ❤️ #belizeawaits #travelbelize

#30DayMapChallenge / #MappyMonday: Interactive map / app developed using @EarthOutreach's #GoogleEarthEngine, showing #LandCoverChange (2001-2019) across the watersheds draining to the #Mesoamerican Reef (#Belize, #Mexico, #Guatemala, #Honduras). #BZSDG x.com/BZgeo/status/117305857…

Replying to @BzGEO
What if, in #Mesoamerica, we could also leverage the power of @NASAEarth's #MODIS platforms like #GoogleEarthEngine to look at changes across our region? For instance, how forest cover has changed in the watersheds draining to the #MesoamericanReef. bz-sdg.earthengine.app/view/…

Did you know that the #MahoganyTree is the national tree of Belize & is one of the magnificent giants of the Belize rainforest. This majestic tree formed the basis of Belize’s economy in the 18th and 19th centuries and can be found on our #CoatofArms. #knowbelize #studyabroad
