UNC researchers and NASA are mapping all the world's water with a new satellite.

UNC's Dr. Tamlin Pavelsky is part of an international team mapping the Earth's water. NASA, in partnership with the French space agency CNES, recently launched a state-of-the-art satellite that will measure the world’s 6 million bodies of water. The project also aims to examine water flow and determine what areas may be prone to flooding before natural disasters strike.
