Natural disasters are extreme events within the earth's system that result in death or injury to humans, and damage or loss of valuable goods, such as buildings, communication systems, agricultural land, forest, natural environment etc. The economic losses due to natural disasters have shown an increase with a factor of eight over the past four decades, caused by the increased vulnerability of the global society, but also due to an increase in the number of weather-related disasters. For the management of natural disasters a large amount of multi -temporal spatial data is required. Satellite remote sensing is the ideal tool for disaster management, since it offers information over large areas, and at short time intervals.

Explanation:
By weather forecasting we get to know about climatic conditions for the coming few days. Weather forecast predicts some unforeseen events which are going to happen such as heavy rainfall, landslides, storms, etc. therefore, in such situations disaster management can prepare for upcoming problems based on the weather forecasting report. Example: disaster happened in Kedarnath due to heavy rain and landslides.
