Google joins palm oil impact mapping project on Borneo 
The Center for International Forestry Research in Indonesia has partnered with Google Maps to monitor the environmental impact of the palm oil industry on Borneo. They've created a map that draws a 10 km-radius around each of the 467 palm-oil mills on the island. So far, 90% of plantations have been recorded with the use of various documentary sources, while satellite imagery will be used to update the map and monitor the impact of mills on the immediate environment. 

In Indonesia, researchers from the Center for International Forestry Research have developed the Borneo Atlas, mapping the location and ownership of 467 palm-oil mills on Borneo, in an effort to help buyers ensure palm oil purchased doesn’t negatively impact forests. So far, 90% of the island’s palm oil production has been mapped. The map is integrated with Google Maps so users can look in detail at plantations and will be updated automatically to show any plantation expansion.
