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!
In 2009 three candidate Earth Explorer Core missions, namely BIOMASS, CoReH2O and PREMIER were selected for feasibility study and their resulting Reports for Mission Selection were published in June 2012.
As a critical input to the decision making process which will lead to a recommendation from the Earth Science Advisory Committee to the Agency on what mission candidate to select for implementation, the scientific community is invited to attend the Earth Explorer-7 User Consultation Meeting that will take place at the Congress Centre in Graz, Austria on 5-6 March 2013.
The three candidate missions are:
BIOMASS
CoReH2O
PREMIER
Please note that meeting space is limited and it is advised to register as soon as possible. The deadline for meeting registration is 31 January 2013.
