WATER AND ENERGY ADVANCED MANAGEMENT FOR IRRIGATION (WEAM4I)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2017,
Agriculture sector is accountable for 30% of the total water consumption in Europe, but reaches up to 70% of total water consumption in several European southern countries. In recent years, most of the efforts have been focused on water efficiency, without taking care of energy aspects, resulting in some cases on a significant increase in energy consumption, both per irrigated surface and per volu ...

Source Integration for Agriculture Management (SIAM)
Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2016,
Challenges facing the agricultural sector, such as climate change, shrinking land and water resources and land degradation, are a major threat to food security. Key in facing these challenges is better management of the existing land and water resources. Accurate and detailed data on crop and water conditions is essential to make this possible. Farmers need reliable data for efficient resource man ...

Spatial earth observation monitoring for planning and water allocation in the international Incomati Basin (WatPLAN)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2013,
This project proposal focuses on water resources allocation and the identification of historical and current water use and high resolution monitoring of several water resource indicators on a weekly basis. For this purpose an operational earth observation system will be developed which includes a website with weekly updates of water resource data on water use. This system can be linked to GEOSS (G ...

Coordinated Asia-European long-term Observing system of Qinghai – Tibet Plateau hydro-meteorological processes and the Asian-monsoon systEm with Ground satellite Image data and numerical Simulations (CEOP-AEGIS)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2013,
Human life and the entire ecosystem of South East Asia depend upon the monsoon climate and its predictability. More than 40% of the earth's population lives in this region. Droughts and floods associated with the variability of rainfall frequently cause serious damage to ecosystems in these regions and, more importantly, injury and loss of human life. The headwater areas of seven major rivers in S ...
