drought monitoring systems

Drought monitoring systems are tools that track weather patterns, soil moisture, and water supply data to detect and assess drought conditions. Using satellites, sensors, and climate models, these systems analyze rainfall, temperature, and groundwater levels to identify areas experiencing water shortages. This helps governments and organizations make informed decisions about water management, agriculture, and disaster preparedness. By providing timely and accurate information, drought monitoring systems support efforts to mitigate impacts on communities, ecosystems, and economies affected by persistent dry conditions.
