  2. APAN Earth Monitoring Working Grouphttp://www.affrc.go.jp/apan/emwg/ • To utilize the APAN network resources in the exchange and distribution of earth observation satellite data in a full and open manner with a minimum time delay and minimum cost, recognizing relevant international instruments, national policies andlegislation. • Preservation and open access to the long term record of satellite earth observation data through digital archives. • Open access to a wider range of geospatial data of the Asia Pacific region. • Exchange of open source software for use in the access, display and analysis of earth observation satellite data. • Review of information requirements for consumers and policymakers in environmental, economic, and social arenas to further expand EO data utilization. • Capacity building activities to engage participation from all nations in the region and to maximize the availability and utilization of earth observation satellite data in developing countries. • Exploration and prototyping of innovative technologies and distributed methods for accomplishing the above.
