Satellite data had many applications in the management of water resources and in disaster reduction and relief.

The Japanese Space Agency, NASDA, is emphasizing the development of data analysis technology for a variety of applications including natural disaster reduction.

The areas of application include space physics, astronomy, astrophysics, technology demonstrations, communications experiments and acquisition of Earth resource data, including disaster information.

Satellite data have been utilized in many fields, including agriculture, forestry, land use and land cover mapping, geology, map updating, natural disaster monitoring and environmental studies.

(b) Development of infrastructure elements, applications and information technology procedures for business continuity disaster recovery in cooperation with Headquarters, ensuring high level of availability of applications and data

During the last session of the Workshop, the participants defined four categories of disaster related topics that needed to be addressed data supply, information generation, decision making and implementation execution.

The UNOSAT service was recognized by OCHA as a provider of satellite data and related geographical information to the Global Disaster Alert System, which was launched by OCHA in December 2004.

According to the data made available at the special United Nations General Assembly plenary meeting on the tsunami disaster, held on 18 January 2005, the total toll stands at more than 160,000.

The estimate of 328,000 for general operating expenses for the biennium 2006 2007 is for Internet service provider and off site electronic data backup storage services ( 110,000) and for disaster recovery services ( 218,000) which will provide fully equipped, off site office facilities for staff in case of disaster and to maintain business operations.

First, the tsunami disaster illustrated the lack of a systematic disaster management framework, including disaster mitigation measures, in many countries.

15. Also encourages in such operations the sharing of geographical data, including remotely sensed images and geographic information system and global positioning system data among Governments, space agencies and relevant international humanitarian organizations, as appropriate, and also notes in this context the work being done by the Global Disaster Information Network

This is the largest metropolitan area disaster in decades, and it was not a natural disaster it was a disaster of engineering.

Disaster risk reduction

Relevant United Nations organizations and donor Governments should strengthen the capacity of disaster prone countries in disaster mitigation, preparedness, response and post disaster recovery within a disaster risk reduction framework, by supporting relevant initiatives in this field.

Recognizing the clear relationship between development, disaster risk reduction, disaster response and disaster recovery and the need to continue to deploy efforts in all these areas,

Voice, fax and data terminals should continue to be positioned at strategic locations so that an uninterruptible source of warning would be available even if the local radio or television infrastructure had been disabled by a disaster.

They had launched and would launch Earth observation and communication satellites for their socio economic development needs and had been offering satellite data and services to other countries to help address urgent needs, such as disaster management.

You say, This photograph, it's about it depicts this person. Bing! That's data. Data, data, data.

Recognizing also the clear relationship between development, disaster risk reduction, disaster response and disaster recovery and the need to continue to deploy efforts in all these areas,

11. Also encourages in such operations the sharing of geographical data, including remotely sensed images and geographic information system and global positioning system data among Governments, space agencies and relevant international humanitarian organizations, as appropriate, and notes in that context the work being done by the International Charter on Space and Major Disasters and the Global Disaster Information Network

The Asian Disaster Reduction Centre is a specialized organization for disaster reduction based in Kobe, Japan.

We could talk about government data, enterprise data is really important, there's scientific data, there's personal data, there's weather data, there's data about events, there's data about talks, and there's news and there's all kinds of stuff.

He said the CPD required some fine tuning' of statistical data and more attention had to be given to trafficking, assistance to disabled children, the prevention of injuries and support to young people affected by the Chernobyl disaster.

C. Post disaster recovery

We recognize that the international community has accumulated much experience with disaster risk reduction through the International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction and the succeeding International Strategy for Disaster Reduction.

Noting the ongoing work of all the working groups established by the Inter Agency Task Force for Disaster Reduction, namely the Working Group on Climate Change and Disaster Risk Reduction, the Working Group on Disaster Reduction in Africa, the Working Group on Risk, Vulnerability and Disaster Impact Assessment and the Working Group on the World Conference on Disaster Reduction,

The regional meetings were attended by disaster management officials from disaster prone and responding countries in the region.

We need a comprehensive strategy to achieve such disaster management including early warning systems and disaster preparedness plans.
