Abstract
Earth observation generally represents a key source of information for the different national and international bodies involved in the implementation of international agreements. If the area of interest is not accessible, remote sensing sensors represent one of the few opportunities to gather almost realtime data over the area. Taking into consideration recent developments in satellite sensor technologies and software solutions, the given paper discusses some challenges with regard to both technical and political issues.
