Hyongki Lee’s Plan To Monitor Water Is Out Of This World

Lee is the principle investigator (PI) on the project called “Building Lasting Capacity for Water Management in Vulnerable Deltas of Indochina.” His co-investigator is Faisal Hossain of the University of Washington. The program is one of 16 selected by the NASA SERVIR program for funding and will receive $598,527 over the next three years. Derived from the Spanish word meaning “to serve,” SERVIR “connects space to village” by helping developing countries use information provided by Earth-observing satellites and geospatial technologies to manage climate risks and land use, according to NASA.
