ABSTRACT: Venezuela’s present economic crisis that began in 2013 has triggered a series of social and political issues. There is a lack of reliable official data to analyze Venezuela’s economic situation. In this study, I use data extracted from the latest brightness of nighttime lights (NTL) image products to create a visualization of Venezuela’s severe economic depression by exhibiting temporal changes in brightness of NTL from 2013 to 2018 of Venezuela.
