Representatives of State Authority for Geospatial Information (ASIG) held yesterday in cooperation with the National Civil Protection Agency (AKMC) a meeting with representatives of the Advisory Mission of the European Civil Protection Mechanism (UCPM) with a focus on the role and contribution of satellite service products in the management of civil emergencies.

During the discussions, the importance of using satellite data for the identification of damage caused by fires, as well as for their prevention and early detection, was emphasized, as a key tool for increasing preparedness and effective response to natural disasters.

This cooperation reinforces the joint commitment of these institutions to strengthen national capacities and the use of advanced technologies in the service of protecting life, environment and property.
