Pakistan Floods Impact
In August 2022, unprecedented monsoon rains triggered catastrophic flooding across Pakistan. Reports were that over one-third of the country was flooded, and there was devastation to key agricultural regions. Early market commentary overstated the damage to cotton and sugarcane production, leading to mispriced positions. HSAT visited over 5,000 locations in 10 days, combining high-resolution satellite imagery, rainfall anomaly mapping, and ground surveys to quantify the production impact within days. This provided a globally unique view of the real damage.
When initial reports claimed crop losses were incorrect, our field intelligence and satellite data revealed the true scale of damage months ahead of the market. A month later, official production estimates aligned with our figures — our clients were already ahead of the market adjustment.
