Reply to comment by jaldihaldi in AskScience AMA Series: We're NASA experts working on SWOT - an upcoming mission that will observe nearly all water on Earth's surface. Ask us anything! by AskScienceModerator
Data from NASA satellites is used in many aspects of land and water management by operational agencies in the U.S. and internationally. We are a data and information resource for these agencies, but we are not, for example, in the business of doing water management. This information will be able to support planning for dam operations.
You can learn more about one specific example of how SWOT data may be used in Egypt in this way at https://swot.jpl.nasa.gov/applications/early-adopters/#AlexandriaU. (MS)
