Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS) Celebrates a Decade of Operation

Implementing science to save lives: A Decade of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service

The Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS) celebrates a decade of operation as a world leader in emergency mapping, early warning tools and open-access disaster information.

For the past ten years, CEMS has provided a global service as a fully operation emergency mapping service at no cost to users and with open access data.

Some highlights on the contribution of CEMS in global disaster risk management activities:

New Data Source for Near-Realtime Land Cover: Dynamic World by Google and World Resources Institute

Google and the World Resources Institute (WRI) created a new near realtime land cover dataset, called "Dynamic World".

Powered by Google Earth Engine and AI Platform, Dynamic World provides global, near real-time land cover data at a ten-meter resolution, giving high level of detail about what's on the land and how it's being used.

With this information, users can monitor and understand land and ecosystems so they can make more accurate predictions and effective plans to protect our planet in the future.

This is event is available for participation on an ongoing basis

The Copernicus Research and User Suppport (RUS) service aimed to develop an online free-access platform to promote the uptake of Copernicus data and support the scaling up of educational and R&D activities. In particular, the service provided Copernicus data access, cloud computing resources and access to effective software tools and training services, allowing users to develop their understanding and exploitation capabilities in relation to Copernicus.

MOOC on Drought Assessment and Monitoring from Space
This is event is available for participation on an ongoing basis
martin.hilljegerdes Fri, 17 Jun 2022 - 11:26

Extensive time-series on vegetation and wealth of operational satellites from space provides ample opportunities to monitor vegetation developments and more and more accurate yield forecast. This MOOC provides an introduction to “Droughts”, answers questions on how it can be quantified, how it can be assessed and monitored from space. The role of cloud computing and (easy) access to satellite will also get attention. No prior knowledge to Earth Observation (EO) is required.

IGAC organises its 9th Geomatic Week in Bogota, Colombia

Colombia´s Agustin Codazzi Geographic Institute launched (IGAC) its 9th Geomatic Week event on 13 June 2022 at the Maloka Interactive Museum in Bogota, Colombia. The event brings together experts, professionals, and students from Colombia and from other countries to address the use of geospatial information in four key areas: technologies and methodologies for multi-purpose cadaster, geographic information for the citizen, new trends in geospatial technologies, and capacity building and empowerment of societies to use of geospatial technologies.

Wildfire Monitoring with Next-Generation Satellites

This is event is available for participation on an ongoing basis

In the near future, new satellites such as Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) and Metop - Second Generation (Metop-SG) will provide advanced capabilities and valuable data for monitoring fires and their impacts. This short course showcases a series of case studies and associated workflows in Jupyter notebooks for fire applications using proxy data from MTG and Metop-SG. Join us to explore the case studies focusing on the August Complex fires in 2020, California USA and the Mediterranean fires in summer 2021!
