text: availability of data (Principle VI). The principles also call for States participating in remote sensing activities to make technical assistance available to other interested States on mutually agreed terms (Principle VII); and to make relevant information regarding remote sensing activities available to the greatest extent feasible and practicable to other States, particularly any developing country that is affected by the programme, at its request (Principle IX). They call for a sensed State to have acce~s to primary data and the processed data concerning its territory on a non-discriminatory basis and on reasonable cost terms as soon as that data are produced and urge a similar commitment in regard to analysed data concerning the sensed State (Principle XII). They also call upon States carrying out remote sensing activities, upon request, to enter into consultations with a State whose territory is sensed in order to make available opportunities for participation and enhance the mutual benefits to be derived (Principle XIII). In general, these principles establish an international consensus which emphasizes international co-operation and openness. Finally, the United States believes that the United Nations has adopted by consensus certain other resolutions relating to international co-operation in the peaceful uses of outer space which, while not creating binding legal obligations, have also establis .hed goals and objectives for States involved in the peaceful exploration and use of outer space, particularly during the early years of such activities. · For example, the United Nations General Assembly in Part D of its resolution 1721 (XVI) of 20 December 1961, expressed the opinion that "communications by means of satellites should be available to nations of the world as soon as practicable on a global and non-discriminatory basis" and the conviction of the need to prepare the way for the establishment "of effective operational satellite communication". 
analysis: The text primarily discusses the principles and guidelines for remote sensing activities, emphasizing international cooperation, openness, and non-discrimination. It also mentions the United Nations' resolutions on international cooperation in the peaceful uses of outer space, highlighting the importance of global and non-discriminatory access to satellite communications. Given the focus on remote sensing and satellite communications, it is likely that the category will be related to transport and communication or science and technology.
