UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal
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!
The German Space Agency (DLR) and the European Space Agency (ESA) are organizing the 32nd International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS 2012) jointly with the Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS), from 22 to 27 July 2012. The conference will be held on the special occasion of the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the IEEE, the largest engineering organization in the world.
The five days event, themed "Remote Sensing for a Dynamic Earth", is one of the most important conferences on geoscience and remote sensing. It will focus on new applications for remote sensing, integrated Earth observation systems, satellite image processing, and current and future satellite missions.
IGARSS provides an annual opportunity for scientists, engineers and decision makers to exchange information on the latest developments in remote sensing and Earth observation. Some 2400 experts from more than 70 countries are expected in Munich; they will use this forum not just for information and education, but also for networking.
