Plastic leakage mapping and hotspot identification using remote sensing data and GIS.
Project: Promotion of Countermeasures Against Marine Plastic Litter in Southeast Asia and India
Countries: Thailand, Cambodia, India, Vietnam, Laos
Overview: The project on Promotion of Countermeasures Against Marine Plastic Litter in Southeast Asia and India aims to develop a region-based model for monitoring and assessment of plastic leakage and pollution reduction. The target is land-based plastic leakage entering water ways such as rivers and canals or drainage to the sea. This project, funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), the Government of Japan, is implemented by UN Environment Program Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific. Many new state of the art technologies like drones, 360 cameras, and mobile applications for data collection were utilized in this project.

Climate downscaling using Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) model
Project: Development of capacity and implementation of modelling for the preparation of data for a Climate Atlas.
Country: Laos
Introduction: The goal of the project is to support national institutions in developing their capacity to support information creation and knowledge exchange on the agrometeorological and agricultural production and strengthen the land resource information. These outputs will support the development of agro-ecological zoning (AEZ) and the institutional capacities to inputs to support agricultural policy development and local adaptation. This project is a part of the project Strengthening Agro-climatic Monitoring and Information Systems (SAMIS) to improve adaptation to climate change and food security in Lao PDR. This project is funded by Global Environment Facility (GEF) and implemented by food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations.
