The Monitoring Extreme Weather in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) service provides a customized numerical weather prediction toolkit to assess high impact convective weather events over the HKH region.
The Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region is no stranger to water- and weather-induced hazards. Every year, these disasters result in loss of lives, livelihoods, and damage to infrastructure throughout HKH countries.
Floods are a recurring event in the HKH region that often have disastrous consequences. To help better understand these events, SERVIR HKH developed the Flood Inundation Mapping Tool, a cloud-based system developed to map flood areas in Bhutan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and the northeast part of India.
