session 7
- Title
Climate Change of the Earth Reflected in Space Law
- type
oral
- Description
The climate change of the Earth requires measures which are based on a precise knowledge of the meteorological conditions and the situation on the spot. The methods of Earth observation are extensively applied for this purpose: a whole branch of commerce has developed in this area. To react properly to the consequences of the climate change, national, regional and international networks for disaster management were established. The session discusses the legal aspects of these downstream activities: it offers insider views into the legal set-up of meteorological observation and follows the development of the legal framework of remote sensing. Moreover, the legal set-up of the disaster management is analyzed, including the provision of urgent remote services.
