Remote Sensing Applications for Water Management
Remote Sensing Applications for Water Management
Session ID#: 124305
Session Description:
The strategic combination of remote sensing
products and numerical modeling facilitate
improved monitoring and management of water
resources. Recent advances in sensor technology,
application strategies, and modeling approaches
have led to improved capabilities for forecasting,
monitoring, and managing a range of hydrological
processes that are key to water resource
management. Many high quality satellite
hydrological data products are now being applied
that enable routine monitoring of precipitation, soil
moisture, evapotranspiration, snow, irrigation and
ground water. This session will highlight
advancements in water resource management
strategies through the innovative application of
remote sensing-based hydrological data products
and numerical modeling.
