Resumen
Descripción
To be in a better position to face challenges related to the sustainable use of our finite freshwater resources, especially in countries with rapidly expanding populations, it is crucial to better understand water supply, demand and availability. Water accounting is one tool that can assist with that and it can be supported by easily available open-access data. This case study aims to show how WaPOR (FAO’s portal to monitor Water productivity through open access of remotely sensed derived data) data can be used to support water auditing processes at different scales: the basin, the national scale and the subnational/scheme scale.
