And Why?
•
Space
technology provides
a
wide
range
of
services to
human
society
all
over
the
world.
•
These range from telecommunications and Radio and TV broadcasting
to global positioning, from search and rescue alerts to meteorological
observations,
from
environment
monitoring
and
resources
mapping to support to the management of disaster situations.
•
The rapid development of satellite
‐
based applications over the last 30
years is the foundation of a wider interest for space activities
worldwide, particularly in developing countries.
Connecting Space People 29
•
It is the basis for a new industry,
the
"space
services"
industry,
which gradually has overpassed the
size of the space manufacturing
industry.
As
tr
onautic
al
Feder
at
ion
•
GLAC will focus on the benefits of Space Applications for emerging
economies, climate change and disaster management, all topics of
paramount importance for both governments and scientists in the Asia
Pacific region.
