CE S CE S • The Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) includes : • 21 space agency Members operating satellite Earth observation systems (or having a significant contribution to such systems). • 20 Associates including international organizations, international research programmes, operational observing systems, and government agencies with significant ground systems
Disaster Management Support Group Objective: To support natural and technological disaster management on a worldwide basis, by fostering improved utilization of existing and planned Earth observation satellite data

Approach • Work with emergency management users with broad geographical responsibilities • Formalize requirements definition • Assess current/planned capabilities • Expand user outreach • Provide support tools • Use lessons learned
Dimensions of Disaster Management To identify requirements, we need to map a multi-dimensional matrix: - Spatial requirements - Temporal requirements - Frequency of observations - For each disaster type - For each disaster phase - For each sensor type Building on the work of CEOS and disaster agencies
