Attending ESA LPS? Check out all the great stuff GEO AquaWatch is a part of from Sunday-Thursday!
🌐🛰️📣Arriving early to the ESA Living Planet Symposium #LPS25 in Vienna, Austria? CEOS COAST is hosting a FREE 80-minute tutorial, demonstrating novel coastal satellite data products. Learn more about what CEOS COAST has to offer coastal natural resource managers and decision-makers!
📃F.02.20 TUTORIAL – CEOS COAST Demo: Novel coastal satellite data products
🗓Sunday June 22nd, 14:00-15:30 local time
📍Hall L3
⚒️Mobile device to participate in audience polling – no other equipment required
Moderated by Aurelien Carbonniere (CNES, CEOS-COAST Co-Lead) with demonstrations by @CNES, @NOAASatellites, @ESA, @Geoscience Australia, @CSIRO, @ISRO
As a new Virtual Constellation within the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites, the Coastal Observations, Applications, Services, and Tools team work together across agencies to co-design new user-demanded coastal products and to test them in 6 pilot regions around the world. With stakeholders involved in the co-design process, the products are guaranteed to be useful and easy to use. COAST also works to improve the quality of existing coastal satellite data. All products are freely and publicly available via the COAST Application Knowledge Hub, which provides access to a wealth of other publicly accessible data and information on coastal regions which may be of interest to coastal users.
The tutorial will include:
- Navigating the Application Knowledge Hub
- Shoreline mapping and Intertidal Elevation products
- Coastal water quality products
- Chlorophyll a and sediment products
- Materials to take home to access the portal and products after the tutorial and meeting.
Join us for the GEOValue Agora session, taking place on Monday 23 June from 12:30 at 13:15. GEOAquaWatch members will serve as contributors and panelists! F.05.06 GEOValue: an international community focusing on the value of geospatial information for decision making
- Description: GEOValue is a multi-disciplinary international community pursuing evidence-based methodologies to assess the use and value of Earth Observations (EO). The community is managed by a steering committee with representatives from ESA, EARSC, NOAA, USGS and NASA and gathers together an extended network of experts and analysts. The group has been tasked by the GEO to develop an impact assessment toolkit that can help users and service providers to reflect upon the benefits of exploiting EO-based solutions for different purposes and across different organisations. The proposed session will call for people at the LPS (companies, agencies, researchers, consultants) interested in the topic of EO impact assessments to discuss with GEOValue experts how they might apply the toolkit to assess the impacts of their activities on users and society.
