Average Annual Loss• Direct: Loss of life: 4350 ; Crop area affected: 1.42 Mha; Houses damaged: 2.36 M; Direct

loss: 2 % of the GDP (Rs. 25000 Cr)• Indirect: Expenses on emergency response and relief ; diversion of developmental fund;

Indirect socio-psychological losses that can not be quantified

Disaster Risk in the country• 12% of land area (40 mha) - Flood prone• 8% of land area (along 5,500 km long

coast tract) - Cyclone prone• Over 65% of land under cultivation -

Drought prone• Around 25% land area - Earthquake

prone ( Seismic zone IV-V); Himalayan and Western Ghats region - Landslide prone

• Andaman Nicobar Islands, parts of East Coast, and Gujarat coast – Tsunami

ISRO-Disaster Management Support Programme (DMSP)

Major components of • Earth observation (EO)

satellites for thematic inputs

• Weather inputs from meteorological satellites

• Communication support through communication satellites

• A single window EO information through the Decision Support Centre (DSC) at NRSC

Conceived and implemented during the 10th Five Year Plan

• GIS based National Database for Emergency Management (NDEM) at NRSC• ISRO Bhuvan Geoportal at NRSC enables data visualisation, access & support• Disaster management support also through international charter, Sentinel Asia, UN-SPIDER

and UNESCAP, • Aerial support for high resolution terrain data and • R&D for early warning using space inputs

Space inputs through DSC for Disaster Management

NRSC is the single delivery point forsatellite derived disaster inputsthat include

• Near real time monitoring offloods, cyclones, forest fires,landslides, earthquakes etc.

• Generation of vulnerability andhazard zonation maps

• Develop disaster early warningmethods

• Provide information for planningdisaster mitigation measures

Near real-time forest fire alert system

• A joint initiative of ISRO and FSI andOperational from 2006

• 6 Observations of active forest firesdaily at 0130, 1030, 1230, 1330,1430 and 2230 hrs using MODIS andVIIRS

• Bhuvan Geo-portal provides onlineservices – Near real-time basis,MODIS alerts are sent within 30mins of satellite observation

Active forest fire alerts - 2017

• 55 % of Forest area in India are prone to Forestfires

- 10 % affected by Frequent fires

- 45 % affected by Occasional fires

• Strong seasonal and diurnal pattern of fires FireSeason – February to June

• Fires are mostly ground fires and tree mortality is low

• Loss of life or damage to property is fortunatelylimited and rarely occurs
