This document outlines critical recommendations for improving disaster mitigation in the Asia-Pacific region through enhanced data coordination and sharing. Key strategies include ensuring free and real-time access to critical data, establishing a coordinating body for better network utility, and deploying standardized monitoring capabilities. Emphasis is placed on accelerating ocean observations in coastal areas, leveraging advances in technology like GPS, and fostering collaboration with existing scientific research and GEO programs to strengthen response capacities in disaster-prone regions.

Recommendations Coordination for disaster mitigation in Asia-Pacific (AP) ・ Free, open, unrestricted data easily accessible in real-time are fundamental and necessary in AP for disaster mitigation ・ Efficient data utilization will require networkcoordination such as through a coordinating body established in AP. ・ Efforts to deploy homogeneous earth monitoring capabilities is essential and such efforts should be expanded including sharing infrastructure with other earth observing systems. ・ Efforts should build upon existing technologies and standards such as those developed by the FDSN. ・ Observations in oceans must be accelerated in heavily populated coastal areas in AP. ・ Convergence of observations in-situ and satellite (GPS etc.) is a promising new technology for monitoring.. ・ Basic scientific research is necessary for sustaining observations ・ We hope to have the meeting regularly for more tight collaboration in AP and also with GEO program
