Title

Integrated Commercial Satellite Applications for Sustainability and Climate

type

oral

Description

Spaceflight represents one of humanity’s most powerful tools for addressing our planet’s most pressing global challenges . From monitoring Ozone depletion and deforestation to enabling precision agriculture and disaster response, space-derived data and insights have been essential in advancing sustainable solutions. This session invites paper focused on integrated commercial stallite applications that directly support the seventeen (17) UN Sustainable development goals, including but not limited to efforts in climate change mitigation, biodiversity preservation, food and water security, and public health. Contributions are encouraged that demonstrate how space-based assets integrated with terrestrial systems, innovative analytics, and cross-sector partnerships, can enable measurable progress toward sustainability objectives. Relevant domains include (but are not limited to): agriculture, water and air quality, maritime and land resource management, disaster resilience, space domain awareness and orbital debris mitigation, transportation and mobility, and energy transition. Papers may present operational case studies, prototype systems, cross-domain architectures, or strategic frameworks that showcase the power of integrated space applications to make life on Earth more sustainable, equitable, and resilient.
