UNISPACE m - ISPRS/EARSeL Workshop on
“Remote Sensing for the Detection, Monitoring
and Mitigation of Natural Disasters”

over the Taal volcano in order to determine the lieat-flow and its
variations.
During the outgoing IDNDR the GARS-Asia Program devotes
its future emphasis to the mitigation and monitoring of natural
hazards in the broadest sense. It is detennined to transfer the
knowledge of remote sensing applications of experienced
institutes and laboratories to those institutions, which need to
apply these methods. The programme is open to any institute and
laboratory that wishes to participate and exchange their
experiences with others. The GARS-Program is not funding
projects, but it supports the exchange of knowledge through
seminars and workshops. It emphasises the wider use of remote
sensing techniques for hazard mitigation and monitoring.
The GARS-Program wishes to propose to the space industry and
funding agencies to plan future space missions in closer contact
with the user community. The network of operational earth
observing satellites still leaves much to be desired: special radar-
interferometric missions with dual receiving antennas,
continuous spatially liigh resolution thermal sensors with high
repetition rates and vegetation instruments with free access to
local users would be among those missions, which are urgently
needed, in order to cope with the challenges of the third
millennium.
