He mentioned that natural hazards essentially represent the extreme fluctuations of average dynamic state of the earth system and the effective response to any such hazardous events depend on the quality of scientific knowledge about that hazard, expertise of the organizations who are responsible for responding to such extreme events and the hazard consciousness of the communities involved. He also emphasized that the building of effective resilience to natural hazards needs to be addressed at all the three levels viz. the global or the earth system, the social system comprising of infrastructure, and industrial capability and the human system. He stressed that satellite and aircraft observations along with geographic information system (GIS) are extremely powerful tool for responding to any type of hazard..
