Title:
Towards a Remote Sensing Evapotranspiration and Consumptive Use Water Reporting Tool for Canada
Agreement Value:
$429,335.00
Agreement Date:
Nov 17, 2021 - Mar 31, 2023
Description:
The goal of this project is to develop a software framework that can be used by a variety of stakeholders (agriculture, finance, government and others) to develop, visualize, and integrate historical and operational evapotranspiration (ET) estimates. For this proof of concept, a software framework will be developed, tested, and applied by building a 10 year archive of crop ET using a multi-model ensemble. This software framework will provide a workflow that will allow users to upload files or draw polygons in order to get user-defined spatial and temporal summaries.
Organization:
Canadian Space Agency
Expected Results:
The Research component of the program provides financial support to organizations to conduct space related research
and development in priority areas. It will support targeted knowledge development and innovation to sustain and enhance the Canadian capacity to use space to address national needs and priorities in the future.
