Pakistan’s SUPARCO Launches Space4Climate Initiative

The Pakistan Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO) has launched the Space4Climate Initiative to bolster climate resilience and action through space-based technologies. This initiative, as per an Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) press release, is centered around a GeoAI-enabled Climate Observatory.

The platform consolidates satellite data, geospatial analytics, and modeling into actionable insights for policymakers, researchers, and communities. It monitors atmospheric pollutants like aerosols, SOx, NOx; greenhouse gases such as CO2 and methane; forests, glaciers, coastal dynamics, river systems, and land use.

Moreover, it tracks climate-induced hazards including floods, droughts, heatwaves, sea-level rise, and GLOFs. By integrating space-based and in-situ data, Space4Climate supports evidence-based policymaking and sustainable development, aligning with Pakistan’s climate agenda and global efforts.
