Remote sensing and disaster risk reduction

Development and application of remote sensing cameras for future satellite missions.

Detection and tracking of objects in Low Earth Orbit.

Remote sensing of natural and man-made disasters:

Remote sensing of crops (drought monitoring, crop development…)

Remote sensing of oil disasters, landslides, floods, dam disasters, glacier velocity, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions…

Remote Sensing Using NASA ISS HDEV

Disaster risk reduction:

Space technologies and sustainable development goals SDGs

– Application of Pressure and Release model

– Hazard maps

– Vulnerability assessment

– Formation of disaster database

Future satellite missions will be designed to contribute to the disaster risk reduction initiative.
