International Cooperation:International Cooperation: TigerTiger

• ESA launched TIGER as a CEOS contribution to implement the WSSD recommendations

• The paucity and poor quality of information on water & land resources required for IWRM is a key limitation for WSSD goals

• TIGER will support African Water Authorities to improve Integrated Water Resource Management by exploiting the benefits of space technology to overcome the geo-information gap.

• 50 African teams• Free ESA data (2000 MERIS & ASAR)• Training
