    Resource Stress Index (RSI) is defined as the water resource availability in the basin to meet the pressure of the water demand of growing population taking account of environmental changes. The parameter such as such as water availability, water withdrawal, rainfall variation, temperature variation, distance to water source are accounted.

  • 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.

    Nepal is one of the most flood affected country in the world. The frequency, intensity and duration of floods has been increased during last few decades. Due to increased population settlements in floodplains and irregular development damage of infrastructure, crop and property has increased creating severe impact on lives and livelihood. Understanding the severity and identification of extent and types of flood damage is highly important to plan effective response. The aim of this study was to develop appropriate methodology to determine extent of flood and damaged areas in near real time basis to support operational response. We have used Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images to generate flood extend data for the year 2017.

    Glacier data of Afghanistan were prepared on the basis of Landsat imageries from 2010. The glacier outlines were derived semi-automatically using object-based image classification (OBIC) separately for clean-ice and debris-covered glaciers and further manual editing for quality assurance. The attributes of glacier data were derived from SRTM DEM. This dataset was jointly prepared by the Ministry of Energy and Water (MEW), Government of Afghanistan, and ICIMOD under the SERVIR-HKH Initiative.
