First International Conference on Remote Sensing Techniques in "Disaster Management and Emergency Response in the Mediterranean Region"
The subject "Disaster Management and Emergency Response" is a high-priority
topic in the Mediterranean region. Risk reduction using remote sensing
techniques may be very helpful in various applications. Identification of
relevant space-based and airborne information for Disaster Management
Support and Emergency Response is a major priority issue.
The Conference is expected to provide an international forum which will
bring together experts from different remote sensing and GIS branches as
well as experts from disaster management to present and discuss their
results, and to exchange their experiences and expertise in Disaster Risk
Reduction, using new technologies, development and applications.
The Conference will cover several stages in risk management, such as
knowledge, prevention, warning, management of emergency situations,
post-analysis of crisis, environmental rehabilitation, etc.
