SUMMARY:EO4SD wrap up event: water resource management
DESCRIPTION:The 2-day event explores the utility and benefits of using satellite Earth Observation (EO) information services for water resource management. Through the lens of specific use cases the event will showcase how Earth Observation has supported World Bank funded development projects in Africa\, Asia and Latin America with satellite technology applications meeting user needs for various priority areas including:\n\n 	River basin characterization and change monitoring (i.e. provision of transboundary harmonized information)\n 	Monitoring surface water dynamics (i.e. mapping the quality\, extent and level of lakes and rivers)\n 	Agricultural mapping and monitoring (i.e. mapping and monitoring of crop areas and agricultural water use)\n 	Natural risk management (i.e. support for monitoring floods and droughts)\n 	Environmental impact assessment (i.e. accessing the impact on water resources from infrastructure developments)
