Objectives:


SERVIR is a joint development initiative of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and USAID. The main objective of SERVIR is to help developing countries use the information provided by Earth observing satellites, and geospatial technologies, for managing climate risks and land use. SERVIR does this by strengthening the capacity of local governments and key stakeholders, integrating satellite and geospatial technologies, and encouraging capacity to develop local solutions.

PEER and SERVIR seek research that will advance this objective and welcome innovative proposals that use geospatial data and tools to investigate climate change impacts and adaptation and/or ways to reduce emissions from land use in the following areas: disasters, water resources, agriculture, food security, health, land cover, and forests.

We welcome proposals that generate and provide user-tailored geospatial information, tools, products and services, and/or a better understanding of the impact of geospatial tools and methods for the thematic areas above. We encourage proposals with creative collaborative structures.
