Pakistan Climate Sentinel
Pakistan Climate Sentinel (PCS) is a map-first climate intelligence platform for Pakistan. It delivers satellite-backed flood risk mapping, urban heat island analysis, vegetation indices, and multi-year deforestation monitoring in one browser workspace at pakistanclimatesentinel.com.
Services
PCS helps planners, researchers, and local teams move from an area of interest to clear, evidence-based climate layers. Choose a Pakistan district or draw a custom region, pick an analysis, and review map overlays with quality badges and plain-English summaries.
- Flood risk analysis with Earth Engine features and machine-learning overlays
- Heat island mapping using land-surface temperature for selected date windows
- Vegetation indices including NDVI, SAVI, EVI, and NDWI, with year-over-year views
- Deforestation monitoring from 2018 onward with XGBoost and transparent fallbacks
Methodology
The platform follows a repeatable pipeline: define an AOI inside Pakistan, retrieve Google Earth Engine imagery or features for the chosen dates or years, run flood or deforestation models or compute heat and vegetation indices, then review Status, Quality, Risk, and Alerts-style context on the map. Outputs support research and planning and are not official NDMA or PDMA warnings.
Team
Pakistan Climate Sentinel is led by Muhammad Hashir Suleman, with developers and collaborators Muhammad Bilal Mirza and Ahsan Rafique contributing across development, climate analysis, and AI / ML work.
