Space Application Matrix

Space Application Matrix

The Space Application Matrix allows you to explore the possibilities of using space technologies for disaster management in all phases of the disaster cycle: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. With this tool you can access case studies, the Space Application Guides, authored by experts and practitioners. They describe experiences from the application of space technology, and address benefits, lessons learned, and further potential, as the case may be.
