ClosedJapan Space Forum (JSF)Japan

Proposals follow a set structure rather than free-form pitching: applicants describe the societal challenge and why it matters, the target users, the space data and services they draw on (from optical imagery and SAR to GNSS, GIS, meteorological or in-situ data), their proposed solution, and the current limitations of the data or services available today; naming future observation needs or new spa

Looking for proposals that use space data such as satellite imagery, SAR, GNSS or in-situ observations to address Asia-Pacific societal challenges like disaster response, climate adaptation, agriculture, water management or public health. Open to individuals, teams, organizations and companies with relevant domain expertise; teams cannot be made up only of students.
