Overview
- The launch was announced in an ISPR statement presenting Space4Climate as a national push to strengthen climate resilience with space-based technologies.
- A GeoAI-enabled Climate Observatory serves as the initiative’s core platform, combining satellite data, geospatial analytics and predictive modeling to generate actionable insights.
- The system monitors atmospheric pollutants including aerosols, SOx and NOx, along with greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane.
- Continuous observation spans forests, glaciers, coastal dynamics, river systems and land use, while hazard tracking covers floods, droughts, heatwaves, extreme weather, sea-level rise and GLOFs to support early warning and preparedness.
- Officials say the effort is intended to bolster evidence-based policymaking and sustainable development in line with global goals, noting Pakistan’s high vulnerability to climate change.
