Remote Sensing and International Law.

In this episode, Wanyana Racheal of the Space Law and Security Advisory hosts Prof. Frans von der Dunk to analyse the evolving relationship between remote sensing practices and international law, with particular attention to how international law can or should mediate the tension between technological capability, legitimate public interest, and the protection of state and individual rights. They analyse, among other things, how remote sensing impacts individual and state rights; the scope and limitations of international law governing remote sensing, particularly as it relates to state and individual rights, the trends in national and international regulation, and discuss potential regulatory pathways, including soft law, national legislation, and international cooperation.
