“Manejo y Restauración de Humedales y Zonas Costeras” (2000–2024)

Job ID: 39931625

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

1) Context

I am looking for a specialist in GIS + Remote Sensing (GEE) + ArcGIS Pro to develop a pilot project for the sub-index “Management and Restoration of Wetlands and Coastal Areas” within a conservation status index for coastal basins in Venezuela.
Reduced scope (POC): 1 basin (to be defined) and minimum variables to test the complete flow.

2) Pilot objective

Deliver a reproducible workflow (scripts + steps) that:

Generates inputs for 2000–2024 with limited scope,

Produces a final raster of the sub-index integrating key variables,

Documents the method for later scaling to other basins.

3) Technical scope (reduced)

Basin: 1 (to be confirmed with me).
Period: 2000–2024.

A. Wetland extent (MapBiomas Aguas – Venezuela)

Classify permanent/seasonal (in this pilot we omit “semi-permanent”).

Area per year and variation 2000–2024.

Output: 1 composite raster 2000–2024 + annual table.

B. Wetland vegetation health (single index)

Annual NDVI (Landsat).

Trend 2000–2024 (Theil–Sen or similar).

Output: NDVI-trend raster 2000–2024 + GEE script.

C. Land pressure (simplified)

% of high-impact use (intensive agriculture + urban) in a single 2 km buffer around wetlands (MapBiomas Land Cover – Venezuela).

Output: raster/pressure layer (low–medium–high) and summary table.
