The design of a versatile software environment to support routine activities of a satellite based operational drought monitoring system is presented in this article. In addition, software provides the assistance to analyse and interpret drought conditions based on satellite derived normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) statistics and ground information pertaining to a given area. The environment currently under development deals with district-wise drought assessment for nine states, taluk-wise for Karnataka State and operates on a standard PC with EGA graphics.
