International Water Management Institute (IWMI)
L o a d i n g

IWMI is a research-for-development (R4D) organization, with offices in 13 countries and a global network of scientists operating in more than 30 countries. For over three decades, our research results have led to changes in water management that have contributed to social and economic development. IWMI’s Vision reflected in its Strategy 2019-2023, is ‘a water-secure world’. IWMI targets water and land management challenges faced by poor communities in developing countries, and through this contributes towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of reducing poverty and hunger and maintaining a sustainable environment.

  • This site presents results of IWMI's first attempt to map global irrigated and rainfed croplands for the nominal year of 2000 using satellite images. The products include 10 km irrigated and rainfed cropland and a LULC map for the globe, 500 meter irrigated area map for South Asia, and 30 meter irrigated area maps for Syr Darya River Basin in Central Asia and Krishna River Basin in India. The maps contain various levels of information including irrigation water sources (surface, groundwater), cropping intensity (single, double, continuous) and dominant crop types.

  • The Water Data Portal (WDP), following ""one-stop shop"" approach, provides access to a large amount of data related to water and agriculture. WDP contains meteorological, hydrological, socio-economic, spatial data layer, satellite images as well as hydrological model setups. The data in the WDP, both spatial & non-spatial, are supported by the standardized metadata and are available for download by user including academia, scientists, researchers and decision makers. However, access is provided in compliance with copyrights, intellectual property rights and data agreements with our partners. Data products include Global Environmental Flow Information System, Global Drought Patterns, Global Irrigated Area Mapping, Flow Management Classes, and regional data on Irrigated Area (Asia and Africa), Glacier and Snow (Asia), Flood Risk Mapping (East Asia) (South East Asia), Flood Risk Mapping (Nigeria), Water Resources Management (Eastern Ganges), Climate Change vulnerability (Nepal), Water Quality Mapping (Sri Lanka), Kabul River Basin Geodatabase, Tana River Basin Information System. The Portal also links to the IWMI Irrigation Benchmarking Service, providing data on irrigation system performance (service delivery, financial, agricultural, environmental, gender) based on voluntary submissions from irrigation schemes across the world.

  • IDSI integrates multi-source remote sensing data from moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) and tropical rainfall measuring mission (TRMM), ESA Soil Moisture (ASCAT) Products and it synthesizes precipitation deficits, soil thermal stress and vegetation growth status in drought process. Therefore, this method is favourable to monitor the comprehensive drought over South Asia.
