1 SPACE MONITORING TECHNOLOGIES IN USE FOR PREVENTION AND ELIMINATION OF EMERGENCY CONSEQUENCES

2 SYSTEM OF SPACE MONITORING OF EMERGENCY SITUATIONS, AND ITS DEVELOPMENT UNTIL Anadyr Murmansk 1 Vologda Dudinka Moscow Sevastopol Yekaterinburg Krasnoyarsk Москва Анадырь Active points of reception Planned for opening Vladivostok

3 TASKS THAT ARE SOLVED BASED ON THE INFORMATION RECEIVED THROUGH SPACE MONITORING SYSTEM OF EMERGENCY SITUATIONS Tasks solved based on operative space-based information: 1. Assessment of the situation in areas of emergency situation, assessment of potentially dangerous objects and territories, that are found in zones of high risk of emergency situation occurrence 2. Monitoring of emergency situations related to floods 3. Monitoring of wildfires 4. Assessment of emergency oil spillage, and the dynamic of their spread 5. Search for rescue boats, or boats that have incurred an accident in remote locations and waters.
