The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) are hosting a global seminar in Geneva from September 28-30, 2026, to discuss the protection of radio frequencies essential for meteorological and climate services. The event will feature the launch of a joint handbook on managing radio-frequency resources amidst the rising demand for wireless and satellite communications.
The accelerating demand for commercial wireless and satellite services is placing unprecedented pressure on shared radio frequencies. This seminar highlights the growing regulatory tension between expanding commercial broadband networks and protecting critical Earth observation frequencies. For the broader streaming and satellite ecosystem, stricter spectrum protections could alter deployment timelines and bandwidth availability for next-generation satellite delivery networks. Moving forward, industry players should watch how these international regulatory frameworks evolve during the preparatory activities leading up to the World Radiocommunication Conference in 2027.
The International Telecommunication Union and World Meteorological Organization are hosting a global seminar in Geneva from September 28 to 30, 2026. The event addresses the rising pressure on radio frequencies from commercial wireless and satellite demand, aiming to protect critical climate services and launch a new joint resource management handbook.
The seminar will be held at the ITU headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, from September 28 to 30, 2026.
The seminar aims to address risks to radio spectrum management and protect critical radio frequencies used for weather and climate services from the increasing demand for commercial wireless and satellite services.
ITU Secretary-General Doreen Bogdan-Martin and WMO Secretary-General Celeste Saulo will launch the new ITU-WMO Handbook on Spectrum Use for Meteorology.
Accelerating demand for commercial wireless and satellite services is putting pressure on shared frequencies. Stricter regulatory protections could impact future deployment timelines and bandwidth availability for next-generation satellite delivery networks.
