Earth Observation ClimLab En

A Cloud Collaborative Environment for Rapid Prototyping of Innovative Earth Observation Products and Services to Improve Resistance to Climate Change
for society and economy.

 

EO ClimLab is a collaborative research environment that enables rapid development and prototyping of new Earth Observation (EO) based products, aiming to support the adaptation and mitigation of climate change impacts in multi-disciplinary approaches related to business and society (agriculture, health, risk management, infrastructure maintenance, education, dissemination).

EO ClimLab can be seen as a “Fablab” environment that provides developers with the data, tools and knowledge needed to develop new products and services to strengthen communities in the face of climate change.

More specifically, EO ClimLab includes the following virtual infrastructures:
  • A physical co-working environment hosted by universities,
  • A cloud-based virtual environment consisting of:
    -Data from Earth Observation satellites, especially ESA missions,
    – Open dates from local providers and IoT sensors,
    – Storage and processing capabilities,
    -Tools for visualization, programming and processing,
    -Tools for developers (e.g., IoS, Android)
  • An educational component with on-line and physical training (EO ClimLab academy) and technical support,
  • A community animation component, including events dedicated to EOvation (hackatons and data challenges) that connect developers (supply) and users (demand) for EO (Earth Observation) products for specific themes,
  • Financial support for ideas and teams in the front.

EO ClimLab can be operated by various entities (incubators, technology parks, local authorities, universities) that will have access to the EO ClimLab packages described above, including physical and virtual infrastructures and support.
