New
services
4
1. To promote and support the development of space-based applications and
sustainable services for the society using existing space systems (observation,
satcom, satnav) and to democratize the access to space applications for all
2. To federate communities of end-users
3. To play a role of leverage effect: a dedicated budget to impulse the start of
feasibility studies and pilot projects and/or demonstrations of new services
4. Cnes should not have any operational role in the future services
Our objectives:
Space applications for societal benefits

HumaNav: A dedicated service for humanitarian fleet management
Contact point:
olivier.senegas@cern.ch
Multi-actors
partnerships :
UNHCR, ICRC,
NOVACOM,
UNOSAT, CNES
Context:
100 000 humanitarian vehicles deployed in
the world in a difficult context (armed
conflict, natural disasters)
Needs:
To reinforce security and safety of relief
teams and to improve efficiency of fleet
management
Objectives:
To develop an operational service
To combine different space technologies
within the same service (Earth observation,
telecommunication and navigation by
satellite)
To federate a multi-actors partnership

International Charter
Space and major disasters
Contact point:
andre.husson@cnes.fr
The Charter was initiated by CNES/ESA at the occasion of the UNISPACE III Conference in Vienna (July 1999)
the Charter is an international cooperation between space agencies, making their resources available to emergency operations
the Charter is a global mechanism:
to task satellites in emergency response situations, and
to provide rush access to EO data, free of charge, in case of natural or man made disaster

Sub-working group update (WGET workplan 2010):
International Charter on Emergency Satellite Telecommunications for
Humanitarian Disasters
Presented by:
Pascal Faucher, CNES - French Space Agency
Group led by:
Cherif Ghaly & Yves-Marie Cilote, OCHA
With the participation of:
Christian Hyde, Hyde & Associates
Paul Wehrli, ICRC
Stéphane Imberton, UNHCR
Pierre Haessig, IFRC
Olivier Sénégas, UNOSAT
Theme: Addressing the Emergency Response Challenge
“The Partners commit, worldwide, to employing their best efforts
to make Satellite Telecommunications Resources available to
Beneficiaries in the event of Humanitarian Disasters”
Purpose of the Telecom Charter
The Charter:
- addresses the response phase and post-
disaster phase
- services the entire world
- provides telecommunication resources to
beneficiaries
- is activated when a natural disaster, a
technological accident, a health disaster or a
man made conflict occurs

CONCLUSIONS
In summary, from concepts to applications:
In the past, many concepts, many pilot projects for disaster management were
successful in terms of technological innovation
today, we try to stimulate the development of sustainable services taking into
account economical and organisational issues and responding to specific end-
user needs in the UN.
NOMAD workshop:
to collect UN requirements
to build a catalogue of services
to identify an organisation interested in testing the solution on the field
