Inundation monitoring service in the Philippines
To meet the Asian Development Bank's (ADB) requirement for more detailed data on floods in the Philippines, the EO4SD CR cluster developed an automated IMS.
The ADB needed to build a more detailed picture of flood response in specific areas surrounding its projects. This allows for better planning for infrastructure investment in flood protection, and disaster response and early warning. A pilot product was produced covering the Jalaur River basin, with the view to extending the product to cover five other river basins in the Philippines.
