UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal
Help Shape the Future of the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal
The UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal is your one-stop platform for resources on space-based disaster risk management. It provides: • Links and guidance on satellite data sources and applications • Recommended practices and step-by-step methodologies • Training materials and tutorials • Case studies and user stories from real-world applications • News and updates on UN-SPIDER activities, events, and global developments
Since its last major review in 2012, the Portal has evolved significantly. Now, we want to hear from you.
We invite you to take part in the 2025 evaluation of the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal!
The European Space Agency, in the context of the "Earth Observations Science for Society" Programme, and CNES are organising a sequel event to Hydrospace2015, called 4th Space for Hydrology Workshop - "Inland Water Storage and Runoff: Modeling, In Situ Data and Remote Sensing", Monday 7 - Friday 11 June 2021, hosted at ESA-ESRIN, Frascati, Italy. This time around the Hydrospace Workshop is organised in collaboration with the GEO Global Water Sustainability Initiative (GEOGloWS) - see the Objectives page - looking for opportunities to explore joint solutions with a broader view on key science questions for Research and Development, up to Operational use of remote sensing information. The aim of getting together during 4~4.5 days is to strengthen the collaboration between the four critical water communities: in situ, modelling and space observation scientists as well as “non-scientific” users such as water managers to address the needs of the application community.
