The International Society for Digital Earth (ISDE) was founded in May 2006 in China, headquartered at the Center for Earth Observation and Digital Earth, Chinese Academy of Sciences, on the principles of the 1999 Beijing Declaration on Digital Earth. In 2009, ISDE was accepted by the Group on Earth Observations as a participating organisation. The Society promotes international cooperation in the Digital Earth Vision, and facilitates Digital Earth technologies to play key roles in, inter alia, economic and socially-sustainable development, environmental protection, early warning and disaster mitigation, natural resources conservation, education and improvement of the well-being of the society in general. The Mission of the Society is to provide a framework for understanding evolving society-beneficial geospatial technologies, current and newly emerging, and to revise the Digital Earth Vision in light of new developments.
The society’s forthcoming events and publications and a full report on ISDE, provided by Prof. Changlin WANG, Executive Director of ISDE, appears at the current issue of the European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories / EARSeL Newsletter, (92).
