The Copernicus for Digital Earth Summer School 2019 is organized by University of Salzburg, Department of Geoinformatics (Z_GIS) – UNIGIS and CopHub.AC – co-organized by the European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories (EARSeL), and supported by ESA and GEO and will be held in Salzburg, Austria, June 23 – July 4, 2019.

The vision of digital earth intends to help understand the Earth system by monitoring parameters and phenomena relevant to human society. The concept encompasses as an integral part advanced measuring technologies and transformations we are facing in their use, e.g. by the way how massive (‘big’) data, including satellite-borne data, are exploited and delivered in near real-...

From 23 to 25 April 2019, the GEO Data Technology Workshop will take place at the Vienna International Centre (VIC) in Vienna, Austria.

The workshop will focus on exploring how to most efficiently make available Earth observations-based knowledge for international policy frameworks, including the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the Sendai Framework on Disaster Risk Reduction and the Paris Climate Agreement.

Participants will be able to connect with and learn from international experts on data management, sharing and governance. They can particpate in discussions on a range of internationally-relevant issues, including the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS), data governance and policy challenges, satellite-based and in situ Earth observation coordination, knowledge sharing, Earth observation platforms and analytics and more.
