Description
The Earth Observations Toolkit for Sustainable Cities and Human Settlements (https://eotoolkit.unhabitat.org/) represents an ongoing effort to put Earth observations (EO) data and tools into context for analysts in national and city governments, and at local community level. Additional target audiences include policy and decision makers, executive managers and the urban sustainability-interested public. The Toolkit focuses on end user stories that highlight EO applications to improve the timeliness and quality of urban-related indicators, guide policies, and support sustainable urban development. It is a multi-stakeholder partnership that facilitates engagement among local communities, cities, national agencies, and EO experts. It also aims to promote knowledge sharing and collaboration between local communities, cities and countries.
This Knowledge Package provides an entry point for the materials produced, revised, and made available through the EO Toolkit Initiative.
