The European Space Agency is hosting the fourth edition of the Earth Observation Phi-Week from 11 to 15 October 2021.
The focus of the event is how to accelerate the future of Earth Observation, presenting recent developments in EO Open Science and latest trends in EO markets, exploring bold and transformative ideas that ESA’s Phi-lab and Data Applications Division supports and scales up along with researchers, start-ups, industry and private investors.
Droughts have extensive and profound repercussions on populations, livelihoods, ecosystems, and economies. The most vulnerable people are unduly affected by their financial consequences. Although droughts affect millions, lead to food shortages, poverty, and inequality, their immense and widespread effects are often underreported.

Introduction
Space-based applications related to Earth Observation and geospatial data play an important role in supporting disaster risk reduction, response, and recovery efforts through providing accurate and timely information for decision-makers. Monitoring floods, drought conditions and water resource environments using satellite remote sensing (RS) technologies have become more essential recently in particular for developing countries.
