Topographical thematic Vector digital data of Nepal based on Land Reource Mapping Project (LRMP), Dept. of Survey, 1984

Land cover data of Hindu Kush Himalayan region of Myanmar for 2010. This dataset is created using the LandSat 30 meter spatial resolution satellite image of 2010 and includes land cover information for Chin, Kachin, Rakhine and Shan states of Myanmar.

Digital polygon dataset of Glacial Lakes of Sagarmatha National Park, SNP Nepal. This dataset is extracted from inventory of glaciers and glacial lakes prepared by ICIMOD, 2002.

Digital point dataset of location of Hydrological Stations of Koshi Basin. The dataset is created based on data from Department of Hydrology & Meteorology, Nepal.

This river (line) vector digital data of Gorkha District was prepared by ICIMOD based on Indian toposheet (1:50,000),1950s.

Digital polygon data of Glaciers of Bhutan in 2010. This dataset is created using Landsat TM and ETM+, imageries of 2010. The glacier outlines was derived semi-automatically using object-based image classification (OBIC ) method separately for clean ice and debris cover and further editing and validation was done carefully by draping over the high resolution images from Google Earth.

Digital polygon data of Glaciers of Nepal in 2000. This dataset is created using Landsat MSS, TM imageries of 2000. The glacier outlines was derived semi-automatically using object-based image classification (OBIC ) method separately for clean ice and debris cover and further editing and validation was done carefully by draping over the high resolution images from Google Earth.

Digital polygon data of Glaciers of Nepal in 1980, 1990, 2000 and 2010. This dataset is created using Landsat MSS,TM and ETM+ imageries of four respective decades. The glacier outlines were derived semi-automatically using object-based image classification (OBIC ) method separately for clean ice and debris cover and further editing and validation was done carefully by draping over the high resolution images from Google Earth. Moreover, the glacier outlines for 2000, 1990 and 1980 were derived manually modifying the glacier outlines of 2010 by overlaying separately the images of respective decades.

The comprehensive baseline information on the glaciers of the HKH region was generated semi-automatically using more than 200 Landsat 7 ETM+ images of 2005 ± 3 years with minimum cloud and snow coverage. The glacier outlines were derived by using object-based image classification method separately for clean-ice and debris-covered glaciers with some manual intervention. The attribute data were assigned to each glacier using 90m resolution SRTM DEM. This data does not cover the China part.

Digital dataset of Wetland ecosystem of Koshi Tappu Reserve within Koshi Basin. This dataset consist various vegetation cover/ land cover and water bodies for Koshi Tappu.
