. Providing understanding, knowledge and scientific evidence on sustainability, Earth system processes and global change and challenges (e.g. energy, mobility, climate change, food security, migration, digitalization)

. Providing technological developments which support SDG achievement and development

. Systematic space-based observations using multiple data sources are needed to support measurements of SDGs

SDGs@DLR: 500+ outcomes of projects / programmes contributing to SDGs and above core tasks!

# 2 Zero Hunger SDGs@DLR

Green house and bio system model project to address the issue of food production in climatically infavourable areas, such as deserts, arctic regions and in possible future habitats on the Moon and Mars.

. Worldwide mapping of water quality data for all inland and coastal waters is now possible for the first time thanks to satellite data.

. Using high-resolution remote sensing data, EOMAP has developed a portal for the International Initiative on Water Quality (IIWQ) under UNESCO's Caucasus International Hydrological Programme.

. Focus: Earth observation, space, sustainability, environmental protection, community The global forest/non-forest map from TanDEM-X interferometric SAR data

Distribution of the three main forest types considered for the global forest/non-forest classification, as suggested by the National Science Foundation (NSF) (2008):. The orange contours delimit the corresponding boundaries which have been effectively used for forest classification.
