Mapping the World from Satellites Helping us understand Global Food & Water Security in the 21st Century
by USGS Research Geographer Prasad Thenkabail
Global food and water security challenges are real in a changing climate & ballooning populations and further exasperated by pandemics & wars.
How did the World feed itself in the past? How will it feed itself in the future?
Earth Observing (EO) satellites are ideal platforms to observe and study the Planet over time and space.
Planet-scale big-data analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing are leveraged to answer critical questions on World’s food & water security.
