The ESA Network of Resources, or NoR, is the ever-evolving initiative that provides Research, Precommercial and Commercial users with a unique environment to discover a list of European cloud services hosting Earth Observation data. Kicked off in late 2017 as the Network of EO Platforms with the goal to bring users to the data, today, …
Sentinel Hub is one of the most commonly used services for satellite imagery processing, powering hundreds of data scientists worldwide, who jointly process more than 12 billion km2 of Sentinel, Landsat, MODIS and commercial satellite images every single month – an equivalent of 80-times the total surface area of the Earth. During the project, we …
EO has a unique role in monitoring the Polar Regions by providing information that is consistent, repeatable, year-round, and covers the extensive area. In particular, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) missions, such as Sentinel-1, have for many years proven useful in high resolution monitoring due to their capability of acquiring data independent of cloud cover and …
Following the public release of the beta version Green Transition Information Factory (GTIF) demonstrator for Austria one month ago, ESA and the Austrian BMK Ministry invited various Green Transition implementers for a GTIF user consultation workshop in Vienna on March 6th . More than 125 people from over 40 different organisations attended the event taking …
Introduction and Objectives The European Space Agency, ESA, is organising the EO Science for Society Info Days to introduce activities in FutureEO-1 Segment 2 Block 4 “EO Science for Society”. The main goals of these Info Days will be to present the upcoming opportunities for European entities to participate in the activities of the ongoing …
This project will develop, test and demonstrate the use of the R data science language within openEO platform. This involves the continuation of development of the openEO R client, integration of openEO software components in R integrated development environments (Rstudio, Project Jupyter), as well as R user-defined functions that directly operate on data cubes and …
This year ESA-ESRIN will host the 125th Member Meeting of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) on 20-24 February 2023. OGC is an international consortium of more than 500 businesses, government agencies, research organizations, and universities driven to make geospatial (location) information and services FAIR – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. OGC work is based on …
ESA announced the Space for a Green Future (S4GF) Accelerator in 2021, as one of the instruments to drive Europe’s innovation and use of space to respond to the global climate and sustainability crisis. In particular, the S4GF initiative is meant to accelerate the Green Transition towards a carbon-neutral, sustainable, and resilient society. Green Transition …
The EO Open Data Science MOOC is hosted on EO-College with the title “Cubes and Clouds” https://eo-college.org/courses/cubes-and-clouds/. This course teaches the concepts of data cubes, cloud platforms, and open science in the context of Earth Observation. Its goal is to provide students with practical knowledge on how to effectively use EO Platforms for Open Data Science in the cloud. At the …
QueryPlanet aims at democratizing the access of Artificial Intelligence to the Earth Observation community by developing open-tools for the creation of AI-ready EO dataset and use-cases that leverage such datasets to build global insights applications. Material and datasets develop under QueryPlanet are open-access. The project aims at providing open-source tools for the exploitation of Earth …
