Drought and Flood Mitigation System

The Drought and Flood Mitigation Service (DFMS) provides robust meteorological, hydrological, and other Earth observation (EO) information as observations, forecasts, and data archives. Input data sources include SMOS, MODIS and Sentinel-1 and 2. DFMS delivers reliable and actionable weather and crop data where up to now it has been unavailable, inaccessible, or of varying quality. Focussed on reducing the impact of drought and floods, DFMS enables improved agricultural management and preparing for weather conditions in general. Products for monitoring, near and long-term planning, and historical analysis are provided through an on-line portal to users in the government, commercial agriculture, and development sectors.
