About Nepal Monitor

Nepal Monitor brings together, for every province, district and municipality of Nepal, the live conditions people check every day (air quality, weather, earthquakes, fires and rivers) and the slow changes that matter over years: forests, farmland and built-up land.

It is built and maintained by Yamraj Khadka. The land-cover maps come from the U-Net model published in Khadka & Pradhan (2026), adapted to Nepal; see the research for how it works and how accurate it is.

Live data comes from public scientific services: NASA FIRMS (fires), the US Geological Survey (earthquakes), Copernicus/ECMWF via Open-Meteo (weather, air quality, river flow), and the World Bank (national statistics). Figures are model estimates, not official measurements; for warnings always follow Nepal's Department of Hydrology and Meteorology and the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority.
