Common Space Humanitarian Intelligence
Guide To The Protection Of Humanitarian Space Nrc Very high resolution (vhr) satellite imagery has become a powerful tool for human rights. it enables investigators to document the destruction of villages, track the movement of displaced populations, and verify incidents in places that are inaccessible or deliberately obscured. In this flashpod, bill greer, co founder of common space joins senior geospatial data scientist, gijs van den dool to discuss common space’s work focusing on building open licensed, freely accessible, high resolution earth observation satellites dedicated to humanitarian aid.
Guide To The Protection Of Humanitarian Space Nrc We recently launched a survey to better understand the community’s needs and what an independent satellite mission would mean for humanitarian action. would opening satellite data reduce. Our work expands peacetech by introducing the first community governed space infrastructure for humanitarian action. while most peacetech relies on adapting existing data sources, common space addresses the structural barrier of access itself. Common space is working to address this gap by developing a community governed satellite mission designed to prioritize humanitarian, environmental, and public interest uses of earth observation data. In this podcast episode, bill greer, co founder of common space joins senior geospatial data scientist, gijs van den dool to discuss common space’s work focusing on building open licensed, freely accessible, high resolution earth observation satellites dedicated to humanitarian aid.

Their vision: launch the world’s first independent, community tasked satellite with high resolution imaging, rapid access, and open licensing so that humanitarians, journalists, human rights. An independent, high resolution satellite for humanitarian use is not just about efficiency; it is about accountability and human rights. this data would be an open, unbiased source to counter increasing misinformation and fake news. Independence allows common space to prioritize humanitarian needs without being constrained by geopolitical or commercial incentives. it ensures that the system remains focused on protecting people and supporting crisis response wherever it is needed. This lack of trusted geospatial information delays humanitarian aid, obscures human rights violations, and fuels disinformation. common space is closing this gap by developing an optical imaging satellite that will deliver open access imagery over areas of acute humanitarian need.
