MOST- joint United Arab Emirates -Israeli Space activities: Space-based remote sensing for Earth observation - Environmental Monitoring

Aim: joint research project, proposed jointly by Universities and Research Institutes from both sides, in the field of: Earth observation with focus on agriculture and water research.

Space-based remote sensing is an important ability for Earth research. Using a variety of sensors enables monitoring and exploration of different phenomena, including: water resources monitoring, precision agriculture, vegetation exploration, land mapping and more. It is expected that the proposed applications will be studied in conjunction with the Data Science concept, e.g., big data analysis, informatics, and related techniques (for example, cluster analyses, machine learning, etc.)

Funding: The budget for the Project will be roughly $100,000 USD (340,000 ILS) from each Side
