In December 2020, the “Mekong Dam Monitoring” project funded by the U.S. State Department was officially launched. The project is led by the Stimson Center. As a core partner, the “Eye Of The Earth” aims to use its so-called online monitoring platform, based on remote sensing, satellite images and GIS means, to collect dam information, watershed temperature, humidity and precipitation information in the Mekong River basin.
Plus record the dynamics of China’s Lancang River cascade reservoirs, combined with the U.S. Defence meteorological monitoring, collect the surface information of the Mekong River basin, and obtain the so-called natural flow through the algorithm to calculate the natural flow without the upstream conditions of China dam.
