Using satellite imagery from the S-NPP and NOAA-20 satellites, obtained via the Google Earth Engine platform, we analysed the situation in Slovenia from 2013 to 2022. Image processing involved inverse distance weighting interpolation and the kernel density estimation method. With time series we showed trends and ranges in the six major urban areas and with heat maps their spatial distribution. Special attention was given to the period of COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 by comparing the data with those from previous and subsequent years. The results revealed a slight overall increase in light pollution, consistent with global trendsSvetlobno onesnaženje je resen globalni problem, ki negativno vpliva na zdravje ljudi, okol-je in živali ter povzroča nepotrebno energetsko porabo. Z uporabo satelitskih posnetkov satelitov S-NPPin NOAA-20, pridobljenih prek platforme Google Earth Engine, smo analizirali stanje v Sloveniji med letoma2013 in 2022. Posnetke smo obdelali z interpolacijo inverzne utežne razdalje in metodo ocene gostote jedra.S časovnimi vrstami smo prikazali trende in razpone na šestih večjih mestnih območjih, s kartami pojavnos-ti pa njihovo prostorsko razporeditev. Posebno pozornost smo namenili obdobju pandemije COVID-19leta 2020 ter primerjali podatke z leti pred in po pandemiji. Rezultati kažejo rahlo splošno povečanje svet-lobnega onesnaženja, kar je skladno z globalnimi trendiTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZRC SAZU
