The magazine “Imaging Notes”, publication that targets remote sensing professionals, has released its Summer 2012 Issue dedicated to urgent, interrelated issues of Earth remote sensing for security, energy and the environment. The publication points out the important role of the Secure World Foundation (SWF) and the United Nations' Space-based Information for Disaster Management and Emergency Response (UN-SPIDER) Program in binding space and disaster response communities. It tackles topics such as the needed use of remote sensing for remote areas, particularly in Latin America; and the necessity to take into account possible legal issues; among others.
