TIGER
Report 2009
[15.8 MB .pdf]

Water, the blue gold of the 21st century, can be monitored from space at several different stages of the hydrological cycle, using Earth observing satellites.

Following the 2002 Johannesburg World Summit on Sustainable Development, the European Space Agency has launched the TIGER Initiative - focusing on the use of space technology for water resource management in Africa and providing concrete actions to match the Resolutions.
