In recognition of these needs the United Nations General Assembly, in its resolution 61/110 of 14 December 2006, acknowledged that use of existing space technology, such as earth observation and meteorological satellites, communication and navigation satellites can play a major role in supporting disaster management by providing accurate and timely information for decision making.
在了解到这些需求以后，联合国大会在2006年12月14号61/110号决议中，认识到利用现有空间技术如地球观测和气象卫星、通信和导航卫星可以为决策者在支持灾害管理中提供准确及时的信息发挥重要的作用。
