Description	Remote sensing and geospatial methods are useful, innovative tools for measuring environmental impact. They provide reliable and cost-effective baseline information, help detect changes over time, and track progress toward the achievement of environmental and other development targets. Given scarce resources and time constraints, remote sensing and geospatial data and tools are valuable in complementing other qualitative and quantitative evaluation methods. Using data on interventions implemented by the Global Environment Facility, this chapter presents the application of geospatial approaches in addressing relevance, efficiency, and effectiveness of interventions on forest cover, habitat quality, and carbon sequestration.
