ESA EO4Health User Forum 2025

September 22 - September 25
WOAH&hybrid, 12, rue de Prony
Paris, 75017 France

Description The European Space Agency, in the context of EO Science for Society, is organising the EO4Health User Forum. The User Forum aims at reviewing the latest advances in the use of Earth Observation (EO) technology for global health, exploring the potential offered by the existing and upcoming EO satellites together with advanced modelling, in …

Multiple THreats on Ocean health (MiTHO)

Prime company: CNR-INSTITUTE OF MARINE SCIENCES-ISMAR (IT)

A healthy ocean regulates Earth’s climate and mitigates climate changes by absorbing heat and human-induced CO2 emissions. It serves also as a significant service provider supporting marine ecosystems’ integrity and resilience, and providing resources. Maintaining a healthy ocean is thus key for a sustainable life on Earth. With the rising of atmospheric CO2 concentration, ocean’s …

HyperBOOST

Prime company: Plymouth Marine Laboratory (GB)

In situ bio-optical datasets are essential for the assessment of the uncertainties of satellite ocean colour measurements and derived products. This is especially critical in coastal waters (between 200m and 5km distance from the coastline), where land adjacency effects, complex atmospheric aerosol mixtures, high loads of optically active components in particular high concentration of chromophoric …

Biodiversity in the Open Ocean: Mapping, Monitoring and Modelling (BOOMS)

Prime company: Plymouth Marine Laboratory (GB)

Increasing pressure due to anthropogenic drivers is leading to a reduction of global biodiversity and its associated benefits at the planetary scale. In open ocean (seafloor depth greater than 200 m) the most important direct drivers of biodiversity loss is fishing and extraction of seafood, with a lesser but rapidly increasing importance of climate change, …

Biodiversity of the Coastal Ocean: Monitoring with Earth observation (BiCOME)

Prime company: Plymouth Marine Laboratory (GB)

Increasing pressure on nature due to anthropogenic drivers is leading to a reduction of global biodiversity and its associated benefits at the planetary scale. In coastal environments, the most important direct drivers of biodiversity loss are fishing, land and sea use, climate change and pollution. These drivers have accelerated in the last 50 years, and …

Invitation to Tender: “Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich and Jason-3 Tandem flight exploitation (S6-JTEX)”

The foundation of the S6-JTEX study is the detection, characterisation, mitigation and exploitation of differences, discrepancies and measurement features captured in the Level 1 and Level 2 products available from Sentinel6-Michael Freilich (S6-MF), Jason-3 and other satellite, in situ and model data. The S6-JTEX project is designed to perform a first end-to-end (E2E) analysis and …

OCEANUS: OCEAN sUrface reconstruction from the synergy of Sentinel 3 observations

Ocean currents are a key component to understanding many oceanic and climatic phenomena and furthermore the knowledge we have of them is crucial for navigation and operational applications. Therefore, a key problem in oceanography is the estimation of the synoptic (or “big picture”, large-scale, simultaneous conditions over a broad area) velocity field. Thanks to satellite …

World Ocean Circulation

Prime company: OCEANDATALAB (FR)

The objectives of this activity are to (i) develop and validate innovative methodologies allowing to optimize the synergetic capacity offered by satellite data, in situ measurements and numerical models for improving the retrieval of upper-layer ocean circulation products over FOUR high-priority pilot areas chosen as to represent at best the diversity of the world ocean …
