GIDMaPS: A Drought Time Machine BY Farshad Momtaz

A drought time machine Team members What is drought? Why does drought matter? What does GIDMaPS do? How does GIDMaPS work? A look into the future Sponsors More information

Team members Assistant Professor Amir AghaKouchak, PhD Shahrbanou Madadgar, PhD Z. Hao, PhD Ali Mehran, PhD Candidate Alireza Farahmand, PhD Student Omid Mazdiyasni, PhD Student

What is drought? Drought: Deficiency in Water Supply Meteorological Precipitation Agricultural Soil Moisture

Why does drought matter? Loss of crop yields and livestock Increase in global food prices Famine and loss of life Climate extreme with largest affect on population Economic damage of $6 - $8 Billion/Year

How to solve this problem?! US Drought Monitoring System Drought Monitor for only the United States Human input and precipitation GIDMaPS

GIDMaps Global Integrated Drought Monitoring and Prediction System Drought Prediction The only drought prediction system currently available Current conditions and long term climatological data to predict future droughts

How does it work? Multivariate Standardized Drought Index Data Scan (NASA Satellites) NASA Servers GIDMaPS Servers Drought and Prediction algorithm Maps! Multivariate Standardized Drought Index Standardized Precipitation Index Standardized Soil Moisture Index

outcome Exceptional Wetness Extreme drought

Gidmaps Web A picture of a product is worth more than a thousand words!!

Gidmaps mobile

Future of drought GIDMaPS can help fight drought Drought Monitoring Drought Prediction Faster data availability More accurate predictions
