UNOSAT Humanitarian Rapid Mapping Service
UNOSAT’s Humanitarian Rapid Mapping Service
• UNOSAT provides Satellite Imagery Analysis during Humanitarian Emergencies – Natural Disasters and Conflict-Situations (Maps, GIS-ready data, statistics and reports)
• As of today approximately 25% of humanitarian activations benefit from data delivered through the International Space Charter (Only for Major Natural Disasters). For the rest of activations UNOSAT relies on in-kind contributions as well as from imagery funds from donors and UN sister agencies.
Maps produced Covering Asia and Africa(2003-2014)

Satellite Derived Analysis
• Wide range of satellite imagery from commercial and scientific sensors (no military data)
• Imagery from very high resolution (32 cm), to low resolution (1km)
• Optical and Radar data
• Relevant GIS data from UN, partners, commercial, public sources and crowdsourcing
• Since 2003: 2500+ maps produced
