In Myanmar, changes in river morphology including floods, erosion, and landslides are affecting ecosystem habitats and the lives and livelihoods of communities living along rivers. SERVIR-Mekong is using satellite-based monitoring tools to support Myanmar state agencies and communities to manage the risks better. The tool is helping the Myanmar government to monitor the changes in the river course at different locations from space and help communities on the ground to deal with riverbank erosion.
