Remote Sensing in Risk Management in High Mountain Asia
An increasing number of high-impact disasters are being reported from High Mountain Asia, some of which have been studied with astonishing detail relying on remote sensing data. Regional capacities to respond to these evolving hazard chains, both in academic as well as governmental environments are however less well known and sometimes available capacities remain untapped. We will look at some of these capacities and associated challenges through the prism of recent events and explore potential ways ahead for international capacities to contribute to further improve our responses.
