What We Do

Earth's dynamic systems in ways that were once unimaginable.

Natural Resource Management

Natural Resource Management (NRM) technologies encompass a diverse set of tools and innovations aimed at the sustainable use and conservation of natural resources.More...

Agriculture and Food Security

Agriculture plays a pivotal role in ensuring global food security, as it provides the primary means of sustenance for the world's growing population. More...

LULC & Environment

Land use and land cover (LULC) are critical components in understanding the interactions between human activities and the environment.More...

Impact Assessment

Impact assessment is a systematic process used to evaluate the potential or realized effects of a project, policy, or intervention on its surrounding environment, economy, and society. More...

Weather and Climate

Weather and climate are distinct yet interconnected components of Earth's atmospheric system.More...

iCrops Mobile App

Help support the project to map Icrops across the globe by collecting data on land cover and cropland. Training and validation for land-use and more specifically crop type is extremely limited. Every location you collect with this mobile app improves our products and helps to improve food security. All of the data collected is made freely available for use and we encourage collaboration with other projects.

The mobile application is quite simple in its operation. To collect data for the project simply click the collect data button and fill out the appropriate fields. You must also enable the application to collect location information. Use the heading capture button to get the heading to the centred of the area of interest from your current location.

ReSAR SDC

The project aims at increasing the adoption of insurance solutions and risk management measures by India’s smallholder farmers for increased resilience to climate related risks through use of advanced remote sensing technology and science-led advisories through collective action.

As a part of the project, ICRISAT deals with the Remote sensing products, which plays an important role in insurance solutions and risk management. (Oct 2018 - Dec 2021)

Where We Work


Being the most vulnerable and inhabited by the poorest of the poor , drylands ecosystems demands attentions to feed the malnutrished and underprivileged.

Mapping dryland cropping systems using space borne satellites provides historical and current status of Landuse and the change dynamics
