Earth observation bears special significance in a mountain environment like the Hindu Kush-Himalayas (HKH) with its remoteness and rugged terrain. It allows a first interpretation and analysis in a situation where in situ analysis is excessively time consuming or impossible. Where good case studies and individual field work have been conduced, Earth observation allows cost effective scaling up and generalisation.
