🌏 From dialogue to impact in the Mekong Delta
The #SOSWater project held its 3rd stakeholder workshop in Vietnam 🇻🇳 with ~25 experts from research, policy & practice.
➡️ Moving from concepts to results.
✔️ Modelling results
✔️ Scenario simulations
✔️ The #SOS framework
Can satellite data improve water management?
In SOS-Water, we integrate Earth Observation into basin-scale water models to better understand water systems and define a Safe Operating Space for water resources.
Our latest deliverable (D3.3) introduces six EO prototypes.
#SOSWater
How can we define a Safe Operating Space for water without grounding models in real-world data?
Read our newest deliverable which looks at strengthening the integration of Earth Observation into the SOS-Water modelling framework.

🎄💧 Season’s Greetings from #SOSWater
Thank you to all our partners and stakeholders for a year of strong collaboration and shared progress toward sustainable water management.
Wishing you a peaceful holiday season and a great start to the new year!
🔍 Turning complex science into clarity:
The SOS Visualizer merges satellite data, hydrological models & stakeholder input into decision-ready insights. Built on IWMS a powerful indicator framework, it bridges modelling complexity with real-world water management.
#SOSWater
đź’§ See Water Limits Come to Life!
For the first time, anyone—from policy-makers to basin managers to students—can soon explore Europe’s Safe Operating Space for water.
Meet the SOS Visualizer, developed by @IIASAvienna & @POLIMI within #SOSWater.

🌍 From Models to Meaning – Entering the Final Year of #SOSWATER
We’re moving from science to impact!
Our models of the Danube, Rhine, JĂşcar & Mekong reveal when basins risk leaving their safe limits.
Follow our 2025–26 journey as SOS-WATER science becomes policy-ready knowledge.
Successful consortium meeting in Bucharest!
Partners advanced the SOS Framework for defining a #SafeOperatingSpace for water:
🔹 Harmonising indicators across case studies
🔹 Tackling uncertainty
🔹 Showcasing our new visualisation tool
Next: workshop tool deployment!
🌍 How can #EarthObservation transform the way we monitor & manage water?
