During these floods, the ground communication systems were generally disrupted and information on flood extent and damage through ground reporting services was not available for taking timely decisions. To address the situation and to ensure continuous provision of current and timely information to the concerned stakeholder’s and decision makers satellite remote sensing and GIS technologies were extensively utilized. SUPARCO in collaboration with FAO started generating data on daily basis on flood extent, damage to households, infrastructure and crops besides undertaking detailed Damage Need Assessment (DNA). This fast track supply of information made it possible to reach out to affected and displaced masses for supply of food, medical care, relief, rehabilitation and follow up programs. In the aftermath of floods, monitoring of flood recession and ponding of water in the affected areas on decadal basis was also carried out for several months. All of this work was published by SUPARCO-FAO jointly in three reports (Reports 1 to 3).

YACHIYO ENGINEERING CO.,LTD GM JR 04-238 Intake at right bank Upstream Weir Gate Under Sluice gate at Right bank Intake at left bank Downstream Under Sluice gate PERSPECTIVE at Left bank THE PROJECT FOR REHABILITATION OF GATES OF TAUNSA BARRAGE IN ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN Summary Economy of Islamic Republic of Pakistan (Population 149,030 thousand, GNP 470 USD per Capita, in 2003) has been largely dependent on the agricultural sector with such dominant indexes of about 1/4 of GDP, about 1/2 of working population, etc. However, the agriculture sector is now in a very difficult and sensitive situation being subjected to problematic weather conditions affecting the area. The GDP of the country in 2000/01 came down due to severe drought that occurred in the country. Situation changed in 2003/2004 because the country’s GDP was 6.4 percent higher than the government objective figures of 5.3 percent due mainly to the favorable conditions of the manufacturing sector, as well as the recovery of the agricultural sector. However, economy of the country is still on the decline due to problems of debt repayment, and other medium and long-term problems such as delay of adequate privatization, stagnation of agricultural productivity, sluggish growth of export industry, etc. Major problems in the fields of irrigation and drainage are summarized in the issues of: a) shortage of water resources in accordance with population increase, b) lowering of irrigation efficiencies caused by the deterioration of provided irrigation systems, c) facility damages due to water-logging and salt, water contamination, lowering of ground-water table, flood, and; d) shortages of operation and maintenance (O&M) costs due to low recovery of water-charges, etc.
