Geoff’s Blog: AI and EO revisited
- April 22, 2021
- Posted by: EARSC
- Categories: Blogs, European EO Industry, Geoff's Blog
Celebrating our first anniversary we returned to the evidently popular subject of the use of AI technology for Earth Observations. In a previous EOcafe on the 4th February, we heard from the AI4EO project which is one of many springing up with different sponsors at European and national levels to promote this synergy between technologies. There are many initiatives[1] and one of our aims in EOcafe is to try to help clarify this somewhat complicated landscape.

Geoff’s Blog: The EO and raw materials sectors: Is this partnership blooming?
- February 26, 2021

- Categories: Blogs, EOcafe, Geoff's Blog
In the EOCafe, “where the EO Community meet”, our subject for discussion had a more applications driven focus. This time it was dedicated to the use of EO information for the raw materials sector. “Raw materials” includes mining but also other means of extraction and even recycling as a means for production. Although, for the EO community, it could be obvious that EO data/information is useful for mining companies in several of its stages of operations, (from the exploration phase, environmental assessment & permits, to design, operations, mine closure and aftercare), for the mining sector there is still a long way to go for this relationship to succeed.

EARSC EO Product Award 2021
- February 8, 2021
- Posted by: EARSC
- Categories: Applications, EARSC News, Uncategorised
EARSC EO product award for 2021 will recognise a product which will support overall sustainable development projects or the implementation of the SDGs at national, regional and/or local levels, with EO services helping on the monitoring and reporting against the goals, targets or the global indicator framework.
In 2015, countries adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These include a broad range of sustainable development issues; ending poverty and hunger, improving health and education, making cities more sustainable, combating climate change, and protecting oceans and forests.
Welcome to EARSC AWARDS!

New year, new EUSPA – bespoke synergies with multiple (space) users
- January 27, 2021
- Posted by: EARSC
- Categories: Blogs, EARSC News, Geoff's Blog
The first EOcafe of the year 2021 provoked a great deal of interest with over 200 joining us in the virtual cafe to hear about the new European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA). It is fair to affirm that the (European) space community is eagerly awaiting the entrance of this new player and its influence in the future of the EU space programme activities, especially for Copernicus. Once the new European Space Legislation is adopted, the current European GNSS Agency (GSA) will be transformed into the EUSPA with its responsibilities extended beyond the current role of market development of EGNOS and Galileo.
ESA: Call for Expression of Interest: “Round Robin inter-comparison of Surface Water detection algorithms”

The European Space Agency and the WorldWater project with support from CNES, NASA, EARSC, CEOS and GEO invite interested parties to express their interest in participating in a Round Robin inter-comparison of inland surface water detection and monitoring algorithms using Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 imagery.
EOcafe: ESA’s AI4EO – Bridging the Gap Between the AI & Earth Observation Communities
- January 21, 2021
- Posted by: EARSC
- Category: EARSC News
AI4EO is an initiative by the European Space Agency’s Φ -lab, to better connect the artificial intelligence (AI) and Earth observation (EO) domains. The Φ-lab’s mission is to accelerate the future of earth observation, by helping Europe’s earth observation and space researchers and companies adopt disruptive technologies and methods.
