The "United Nations Platform for Disaster Management and Emergency Response" (UN-SPIDER) is a United Nations program that aims to "ensure that all countries and international and regional organizations have access to and develop the capacity to use all types of space-based information to support the full disaster management cycle".

The UN-SPIDER website provides several recommended practices for fostering the use of satellite data in the various phases of disaster management.
