The objective of this study is to analyze the deforestation of forest cover in the Apurimac region between 2001 and 2020 using the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, a planetary-scale platform for the analysis of environmental data. The methodology used in the analysis of the deforested area is based on the classification of cover, using a supervised classification method developed by the University of Maryland, based on a "decision tree".
