Subject: Special Issue "Earth Observation to Support Disaster Preparedness and Disaster Risk Management" in Remote Sensing

Dear Disasters WG members/associates,

with this I forward information about a special issue of the Open Access Journal “Remote Sensing”, see http://www.mdpi.com/journal/remotesensing/special_issues/EO_disaster

Excerpt from the page:
we invite you to submit manuscripts about your recent research, as well as review papers, with respect to the following topics (not limited):

  *   EO algorithm development, automation, implementation, and validation for tracking changes and dynamics in exposure to (natural) hazards and of vulnerable elements over time and space;
  *   EO for multi-hazard early warning systems and examples of implementation/contribution to risk reduction;
  *   Case studies demonstrating the use of Copernicus and/or other satellite data in support of risk management;
  *   EO for measuring and monitoring disaster-relevant SDGs and Sendai indicators;
  *   EO for supporting Sendai priority for action 1 “Understanding disaster risk” and priority 4 “Enhancing disaster preparedness” including measurement and monitoring of global targets and defined indicators.

Best regards
Jens
