SERVIR-HKH uses data from a collection of Earth observing satellites, ground-based data and advanced geospatial information technology in innovative ways to help decision makers respond to environmental challenges in the Hindu Kush Himalaya. Applications and tools developed under the SERVIR-HKH initiative provide evidence for decision making in the region.
These applications and tools are available as dedicated services that can be classified under five thematic areas – agriculture and food security, air quality, water resources and hydro-climatic disasters, land cover and land use change and ecosystems and weather and climate.
All science applications developed under SERVIR-HKH are made available online on Mountain Geoportal. The Mountain Geoportal is ICIMOD’s designated space for all science applications, and hosts innovative and interactive web applications that provide dynamic visualization of spatial data and other geospatial information services.
Important Notice!
The SERVIR-Hindu Kush Himalaya initiative has formally concluded in January 2025. However, the services, tools, and resources developed under the initiative remain active and fully operational, and our team continues to provide support and updates.
Currently, ICIMOD is part of SERVIR global collaborative —transforming advanced geospatial science into practical solutions for pressing environmental and development challenges in the Hindu Kush Himalaya region. By combining local knowledge, shared scientific expertise, and regional collaboration, we strengthen resilient communities, safeguard ecosystems, and drive lasting, scalable change.
