The World Environment Situation Room is an initiative of a worldwide consortium of big data partners.  With overarching environmental policy relevance and impact, the global project includes geo-referenced, remote-sensing and earth-observation information integrated with statistics and data on the environmental dimension of sustainable development.

The platform facilitates the transformation of data into information products and services.  It is targeted to top environmental and country policymakers, the environmental scientific community, business, and interested citizens.

Implemented in different cities, countries and regions, the tool is intended to support progress on delivering the environmental dimension of Agenda 2030 for sustainable development.
