## Editorial
World Food Programme is a United Nations humanitarian agency headquartered in Rome, with operations in more than 120 countries and a staff base above 20,000.[^wfp-about-2026] It uses satellite-derived climate, vegetation, rainfall, and hazard data in food-security monitoring and early-warning workflows across more than 95 countries.[^wfp-hungermap-2026] WFP geospatial analysis also uses RGB and multispectral satellite imagery for crop monitoring, rainfall tracking, vegetation-basin analysis, and a geospatial archive spanning more than 20 years.[^wfp-eo-geoawesome-2026] This makes WFP a demand-side institution for EO-derived food-security analytics and humanitarian early warning.
