On the occasion of the World Health Assembly in Geneva, ESA organised together with the Geneva digital health hub (gdhub), and various partners (UN agencies OOSA and WHO; Space and Global Health Network; Group on Earth Observations; Open Geneva; Space Generation Advisory Council; University of Geneva), a side event which focuses on Space and Global …
Soil sealing, caused by urban development, poses serious environmental threats, from flooding to biodiversity loss, to exacerbated urban heat island effects. Soil sealing maps – at 10m resolution – along the entire Mediterranean coastline, spanning the period 2018-2022, have been generated from Sentinel-2 data within the Ulysses project, a Mediterranean Regional Initiative Land activity. In …
Following the winter season introducing EO cloud platforms and services, the Network of Resources webinar series is back with new sessions to give you the opportunity to deepen your understanding of EO cloud services or discover new ones. Join us as we explore how EO cloud services can support you to effectively work with EO …
EarthCODE (Earth Science Collaborative Open Development Environment) is an environment with the objective to enable adoption of FAIR Open Science Principles throughout ESA-funded Earth System Science activities, to deliver long-term persistence of data, code and documentation, aiding reproducibility, reuse and consumption of research outputs by a wider community. Get selected as a supplier EarthCODE is being …
The European Space Agency’s Earth Observation Programmes (EOP) Directorate has established the new Integrated Policy Expert Scheme (IPES). This innovative initiative aims to bridge the gap between cutting-edge Earth observation (EO) solutions and international and European policies on the environment and sustainable development. Why this scheme? One of EOP fundamental goals is to accelerate …

The Gravity Recovery And Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission has been instrumental in our understanding of the water cycle by measuring Total Water Storage Anomalies (TWSA). However, its coarse spatial and temporal resolutions have limited its applications in various scientific and socio-economic domains. A recent scientific paper, an outcome of the 4DMED-Hydrology project, demonstrates a new …
ESA’s EarthCARE satellite is set to launch soon, aiming to advance our understanding of clouds and aerosols and their impact on Earth’s energy balance. In response to urgent climate challenges, the European Commission and ESA have prioritized the science of clouds and aerosols within the Earth System Science Initiative, a coordinated response aligning research efforts …
This activity is focused on the exploitation of Earth Observation data, in situ data and flood models with the aim of enhancing the use of EO data for flood prediction. It is motivated by the need to maximise the use of the above-mentioned data and tools for the UN Sustainable Development Goals number 6, Water, …
