In the watershed level, existing lease hold forest boundary delineated to know the exact area under the lease hold forest. GeoEye-2009 image used for this pupose in the Kayerkhola watershed
-
Digital polygon data of Glaciers of Bhutan in 1990. This dataset is created using Landsat MSS, imageries of 1990. 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.
-
The dataset present the crop sown area for rice crop during 2010 - 2015.
-
The past few decades have seen high levels of deforestation and forest degradation in the Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region. In this context, under SERVIR Himalaya programme, ICIMOD has developed forest cover monitoring system to identify forest change hotspot areas which need critical forest management attention in four pilot areas. This forest loss data of Sarlahi, Nepal between 2010 and 2013 has been developed using LandSat 8 data in a semi-automated manner as part of the forest cover monitoring system.
-
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.

The dataset present the drought frquency during the last 30 years in Autumn season. The data is based on CHIRPS rainfall data by Climate Hazard Group (CHG) .

Hazard, vulnerability and risk due to flood are calculated at Village Development Committee (VDC) level of Nepal. Hazard index has been calculated as an arithmetic sum of flood frequency, height above nearest drainage (HAND), river density and forest density. Vulnerability index is the function of population as an Exposure, Sensitivity (sex ratio, dependency ratio and child women ratio) and Resilience (road density, population in abroad, literacy, transport facility, etc). Then risk is the sum of hazard and vulnerability index.
