Drought_monitoring programs

Drought monitoring programs use various data sources like rainfall measurements, soil moisture levels, and satellite imagery to assess and track drought conditions over large areas. They help identify regions experiencing water scarcity, which can impact agriculture, water supply, and ecosystems. By providing timely and accurate information, these programs support decision-making for water management, disaster preparedness, and resource allocation, ultimately helping communities and authorities respond effectively to drought challenges and mitigate potential damages.
