Vision & Goals |
|
Vision for the proposed CANEUS
initiated and UN led Global-Sat constellation is to
create a common platform that allows sharing of
space and data segments with its ability to serve as
a strong tool for nation’s disaster management and
development needs.
Collaborating and sharing information mutually
enhances nations’ disaster management capability and
economic prosperity of their territories. The UN
OOSA played a key role in the establishment of
international space cooperation frameworks and the
proposed initiative now calls for the establishment
of a new global framework for the free exchange of
disaster and climate monitoring information.
The UN Global-Sat is an opportunity for constructive
engagement in space technology with partners that
will increase partner nations’ capacity tailored to
specific disaster management requirements.
CANEUS, a global non-profit organization, is
proposing to define technical, policy, and financial
issues, and to frame an implementation plan for the
UN Global-Sat constellation. The eventual goal is to
establish a public/private partnership that would
create a low-cost, internationally shared data
collection and distribution backbone in space with
no barriers to entry for participating nations.
