Introduce to RSC

Remote Sensing Center-RSC, Water Resources and Environment Research Institute, Water Resources and Environment Administration under the Prime Minister’s Office. One of the main duties of RSC is to be the main coordinator and manager of the Environment and Natural Disaster using RS and GIS at the national level.

It is coordinating with other relevant institutions such as the Department of Meteorology and Hydrology on warning in Lao PDR, the Department of Water Resources on Water Resources and flood monitoring. and the National Disaster Management Office (NDMO) for the policies on disaster management, Ministry of Agriculture and Forest for the policies on the forest management and others activities such as forest cover monitoring and forest fire etc,

Vision

To be a center of the national focal point on the applications of Remote Sensing and GIS in natural resources and environment as well as natural disaster research.

Hazards and Disaster in Laos

I. Natural Disaster- Flood (river flood and flash flood)- Drought- Windstorm- Landslide - Earthquakes (Bokeo, Luang Prabang province )- Epidemic ( human and animal disease)- Pest

II. Man-made- UXO- Fire (Forest fire, Urban fire)

Main Activities:- Emergency observation in case of major

disasters by ALOS + ···- ALOS accepts observation request to JAXA/

ADRC and AIT- Wildfire monitoring by MODIS: Technology

transfer from GIC/AIT- Flood monitoring:- Research/Training/Mini-project for

utilization of satellite image for environment monitoring and disaster monitoring.

- Space Application for Environment-SAFE

Flood Monitoring/ Sentinel Asia

1. RSC, WERI,WREA Responsible for the National Working Group of the flood information in Lao PDR

2. Data sharing between line government agency, international organization (MRCs, WCS, WWF,…) & NUL

3. Monitor and Access the area of flood/real time/before / after

Utilization of Sentinel Asia

Emergency Request:

1. The observation request User Name (UN) and Password (PW), by Sentinel Asia website and submit EOR completed form as well as request to the ADRC/JAXA;

2. Sharing information between line agency and research node such as AIT;

3. Report to the Water Resources and Environment Administration, Prime Minister’s Office.

Request Sentinel Asia in case emergency:Coordinate, Pictures, sharing data information…

Wildfire Information, 14 March 2010

Overview of the MODIS Fire Information System for Laos The AIT MODIS Fire Information System for Laos is a near real-time automatic system. The structure is very similar to the existing regional system. It consists of Product Generation, Visualization, and Database and Statistical Analysis systems. The system uses the output information, which generated and transferred by the regional system.

Sentinel Asia STEP 2 The 4th Sentinel Asia System

Operation Training was held on 10-12 February 2009 in Vientiane- Sponsor by JAXA- Organized by RSC/WERI/WREA- attended by 13 Asia Pacific countries including 6 ASEAN Member States namely Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Viet Nam.

The 5th Sentinel Asia System Operation Training was held in Colombo, Sri Lanka in 22 – 26 February 2010.

The 6th SAS Operation Training was held in July, 2010, Bangkok, Thailand..

Next SAS…Lao PDR would like to participate

Expectation / Request to Sentinel Asia

1. There is limited of knowledge on RS , lack of satellite data information/real time disaster we need SA support Satellite image after disaster.

2. Enhancement of National – provincial staff capacity building.

3. Joint Project Research between SA Members/JAXA/ADRC/AIT: Flood, drought, wildfire monitoring and water and carbon evaluation by using satellite data

4. Continue Participate next SA meeting5. RSC Will continue SA-STEP3/APRSAF-18

Thank you very much!Khop jai lai lai!
