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!
SSTL, South East Asia Disaster Risk Insurance Facility (SEADRIF), and The World Bank will be hosting the first HADR Challenge Engagement Workshop on 26 June 2020 (FRIDAY) at 3.30PM SGT! Speak with experts to learn more about how space technology is used to aid in rescue and recovery efforts in the event of a disaster and get a peek into how SEADRIF utilises satellite data to assess the extent of damage caused by flooding.
Through this workshop, you can stand to gain further insight into what the Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief challenge is about, what participants can gain out of the competition and an informative demonstration of SEADRIF’s flood monitoring software.
