International Charter Space and Major Disasters' Grand
Challenges for Disaster Reduction Grand Challenges for Disaster
Reduction U.S. National Science and Technology Council Subcommittee
on Disaster Reduction 1. Provide hazard and disaster information
where and when it is needed 2. Understand the natural processes
that produce hazards 3. Develop hazard mitigation strategies and
technologies 4. Recognize and reduce vulnerability of
interdependent critical infrastructure 5. Assess disaster
resilience using standard methods 6. Promote risk-wise
behavior
Slide 5
International Charter Space and Major Disasters' The Hyogo
Framework for Action 1. Ensure that disaster risk reduction is a
national and local priority 2. Identify, assess and monitor
disaster risks and enhance early warning 3. Use knowledge,
innovation and education to build a culture of safety and
resilience at all levels 4. Reduce the underlying risk factors 5.
Strengthen disaster preparedness for effective response at all
levels
Slide 6
International Charter Space and Major Disasters' The Charter -
Purpose An International agreement among Space Agencies to support
relief efforts in the event of emergencies caused by major
disasters Disaster response Multi-satellite data acquisition
planning Fast data turn-around priority acquisition Archive
retrievals and spacecraft tasking Data processing at pre-determined
level Space Agency contribution in image/data Space Agency
