Water Minister Meets JPAS for Satellite Use
The Egyptian Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation, Hani Sweilam, visited the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) to discuss the use of satellites and remote sensing technologies in water resource management. The goal is to improve forecasts and early warning systems for disaster risks such as floods and droughts. Japanese officials reviewed applications for monitoring rainfall, floods, soil moisture, and vegetation cover, as well as the GSMaP system, which relies on satellite data to estimate rainfall globally, especially in regions with limited ground observation networks. Emphasis was placed on integrating satellite data with ground-based data and hydrological models to support early warning systems, aiming to enhance the efficiency of water resource management and address climate change challenges, in line with Egypt’s Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation Strategy 2.0.
