Abstract
The paper discusses the challenges and chances for the use of Earth Observation (EO) as a supportive information source in the development of Low Carbon Action Plans. The process of Low Carbon Action Planning is described and analyzed with regard to information gaps that can be bridged using the support of EO derived information products. In addition, the potentials for utilization of urban remote sensing are discussed and related to the requirements of Low Carbon Action Plans. A case study is presented showing EO based information products for the cities of Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar.
