The Supporting Climate Adaptation and Mitigation in Myanmar service was a collaboration between SERVIR and Myanmar develop a National Land Cover Monitoring System, a web-based tool created using the cloud-based Google Earth Engine.
Forested areas are important to our planet's health because they take in large amounts of carbon and release oxygen. When forests are removed or degraded, less carbon is taken from the atmosphere, and the result is increased carbon emissions, which may hasten climate change and increase its impact.
Research from a SERVIR Applied Sciences Team and from scientists at the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) guided a UNDP-funded project that informed Nepali officials' decision to lower the water level in potentially dangerous Imja Lake.

This collection of case studies is a companion to the SERVIR Service Planning Toolkit. It provides concrete examples from SERVIR’s experience, and that of our partners, applying the Service Planning approach.
Monitoring land cover change over time is essential to understanding ecosystem health, biodiversity, forest carbon cycling, and much more. Land cover/land use (LCLU) data and maps are critical components for climate monitoring applications such as Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions reports.
SERVIR has been strongly supporting the use of Earth observation technologies by countries in Eastern and Southern Africa to account for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
This workshop is the third in a series offered by SERVIR Amazonia focused on using remote sensing to monitor mangroves in Guyana.
