Help Shape the Future of the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal
The UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal is your one-stop platform for resources on space-based disaster risk management. It provides: • Links and guidance on satellite data sources and applications • Recommended practices and step-by-step methodologies • Training materials and tutorials • Case studies and user stories from real-world applications • News and updates on UN-SPIDER activities, events, and global developments
Since its last major review in 2012, the Portal has evolved significantly. Now, we want to hear from you.
We invite you to take part in the 2025 evaluation of the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal!
From 20 to 21 November 2012, the Commission on Open Source Geospatial Technologies of the International Cartographic Association (ICA) will be hosting a hands-on workshop on “Open Source, Open Standards, Open Data for Geospatial”.
This event follows the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which the ICA signed in 2011, jointly with the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo), with a view to develop global collaboration opportunities in the field of open-source GIS software and data for academia, industry and government organizations. This hands-on workshop will allow the participants to learn more about Open Source tools for GIS and mapping on the Web.
