Join CEMS on 11 October to celebrate the Disaster Risk Reduction Day 2024 and learn about the Joint Research Centre’s (JRC) work on crisis management and the risks and opportunities of the future.
The annual conference will focus on how early-warning and monitoring data – on droughts, wildfires, floods, emergency mapping and population exposure – provided by the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS) can support a wide range of policies and help build disaster risk management strategies.
- During the morning, experts will show how CEMS has been delivering early-warning and monitoring insights on floods, wildfires, and droughts.
- In the afternoon, practical sessions will provide an opportunity for attendees to learn how to use CEMS dashboards to extract personalised data that suits their needs.
The narrative guiding the conference will show how early-warning and monitoring data can support a wide range of policies. This data includes information on droughts, wildfires and/or floods, along with emergency maps that detail the near real-time impact of those extreme events and others like earthquakes, cyclones, oil spills or landslides. Other data also shows the distribution of people and urban areas and plays a key role in the monitoring of SDG11 – Sustainable Cities and Communities.
The systems providing these data are operated by scientists at the Joint Research Centre who are part the Copernicus (Emergency) Space Program. But the main users of these data include the EU’s Response and Coordination Centre, Member States and Participating States of the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, other research organisations or enterprises, among others, repurposing Copernicus’ free and open data for different purposes or scales.
