ABSTRACT: Increasing attention is being paid today to the potential offered by geospatial information
in particular if generated with the help of satellites to contribute to mitigation of major disasters – tsunamis and earthquakes as much as man-made disasters. The current contribution seeks to outline some of the major legal issues involved in the use space-derived data for emergency response, focusing on four topics: copyrights, access to remote sensing data, responsibilities and liabilities, and security and dual use-issues involved. This contribution forms part of the Leiden Faculty of Law research programme ‘securing the rule of law in a world of multilevel jurisdiction: coherence, institutional principles and fundamental rights’.
