GEO Initiative: EO4SDG

Mapping EO and Goals• “Population distribution” and 

“Cities and Infrastructure Mapping” are important to indicators and decision making related to all 17 goals

EO4SDGs    

Alignments of the Goals with specific types of Earth observations and 

geospatial information

Alignment of Earth Obs. and GEO to the Goals, Targets, and Indicators

SDGs with most opportunities:

EO4SDG

EO case studies: Agenda 2030

https://www.earthobservations.org/documents/publications/201703_geo_eo_for_2030_agenda.pdf

GEO is instrumental in integrating Earth observation data into the methodology of measuring, monitoring and achieving the SDG Indicators. 

Brochure gives graphic illustrations of EO data sets available allowing decision‐makers to help identify the status of conditions they need to report, as well as visualize the solution.
