EUdata4oceandecade - Today 19 June 2024 -14:30 CET - "Data for the UN Ocean Decade – A European focus. The first webinar will introduce Earth observation, in situ, and modelled marine data, how to access them through the European platforms of Copernicus, EUMETSAT, and EMODnet, and their possible applications. In addition, during the webinar, an interactive session in which participants will be asked to share the challenges they face when obtaining or using EO marine data will be featured. Such a user-driven approach will allow for the feedback collected to be used to structure the remainder of the webinar series." https://lnkd.in/evUj9k5n

📢On behalf of the STELLAR project, Telespazio France attended the 7th DRMKC Annual Seminar on November 21 last year.   Axelle Pomies and Laurent Arzel participated in the parallel workshop "Early Warning for All Europeans: Fostering a Common European Approach to Early Warning Systems to Reach All Europeans", which aimed to bring together Member States, scientists, and EWS practitioners to discuss a common European policy approach to early warning systems and address the key priorities for a comprehensive and practical EWS for all Europeans. During the introductory speeches, Axelle shared experience from Galileo EWSS (Emergency Warning Satellite Service), using satellite navigation systems for alert broadcast.   The knowledge shared, and connections made during this event are very valuable. A big thanks to the organizers and all contributors for such an enriching seminar !   #publicwarningsystem #EWSS #Galileo #DRMKCAnnualSeminar #DRM #DRMKC2023   📍About Emergency Warning Satellite Service: The Emergency Warning Satellite Service (EWSS) is a new service currently being introduced in Galileo. It exploits the advantage of the Galileo infrastructure and signals to put at the disposal of national civil protection authorities a satellite channel for sending alerts to population in case of looming disaster. The service is introduced as a complementary means to national alert systems, e.g. when traditional terrestrial alerting systems cannot operate at full capacity, or even collapse.   📍More about the STELLAR project: The STELLAR is a project funded under the European Union ‘s programme Horizon Europe and managed by the European Commission DG DEFIS. The objective of STELLAR is to prepare the introduction of EWSS in the Galileo 1st Generation. More specifically, STELLAR aims at the consolidation of Galileo EWSS concept, by developing a full representative prototype architecture, and by organizing demonstrations in the European Union to evidence the characteristic and performance of this future alert service. 👉More about the 7th DRMKC Annual Seminar : https://lnkd.in/ehC44VCR Telespazio

The #ClimateCrisis is a fossil fuel crisis. Until we make an accelerated transition to renewable energy, we will continue to see temperatures climb with alarming consequences for nature and people. Nature also has a critical part to play in the solution, including the world’s high integrity forests. They are essential for a stable climate. Without their active role in removing CO2 from the atmosphere, the world would already be at least 0.5°C hotter than it is today.

As one of the first contributors to the Copernicus program, we are excited to attend the Nationales Forum für Fernerkundung und Copernicus 2024. If you're there, stop by to discuss the newest remote sensing solutions for Emergency Response, 15-minute Near Real-Time delivery, and the future of #EarthObservation in Europe. #EU #Copernicus #EuropeanUnion #EUSpace

🛰 Major General of the Space Command, Isaac M. Crespo, will share his views on the present and future of the #spacesector as keynote speaker on Wednesday 21st at #SSSIF2024 "We understand sustainability in space exploration as the means to be able to continue these activities indefinitely. In that context, it must allow access to space activities in a fair and legitimate way for different actors, while preserving the space environment for future generations. In our view, the only way to address the sustainability of space is through international cooperation and, of course, international legislation regulating space in its various activities." 🗣 If you want to know more about the 2024 milestones of MESPA, don't miss the full interview: https://lnkd.in/dYA4nn5Y

Just got back from European Space Agency (ESA) representing the Malta Council for Science and Technology (MCST) at the International Relations Committee (IRC) and Plan for European Cooperating States (PECS) meetings held at the ESA ESRIN centre for Earth Observation in Rome. Interesting developments in the European Space Arena which is rapidly growing. It was very interesting to see the potential use of Copernicus Satellite Data and to get a much deeper understanding of the impact of Climate Change from the various models that were demonstrated to us. It was also quite alarming to see how Climate Change is having such a negative effect on the world's Eco System. Seeing the data first hand makes one realise the amount of work that needs to be done to mitigate this problem. It also outlines the need to have such immediate data systems in a country's infrastructure to help to furnish policy and decision making based on this data and not on GDP and market factors.

☄️The 2nd EO and GNSS Market Report is out! This report outlines #EUSpace-based applications in 15 market segments and offers analytical insights in both #EO and #GNSS markets, their growth and their benefits. Here are some key highlights: - The adoption of EO and GNSS technologies is supported by market drivers and challenges such as the digital transition, climate change, or population growth - GNSS revenues are set to double to nearly €580 billion in 2033, with Consumer Solutions, Tourism and Health; and Road & Automotive leading the market. - The EO market is expected to grow to almost €6 billion in 2033, enhancing sustainability and increasing awareness of EO's potential applications. This is a key document produced by @EUSPA - EU Agency for the Space Programme to understand and integrate SatNav and Earth Observation in new technologies and drive positive change. Free download:

It was a privilege today to attend as Observer the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA)’s Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOUS) and share the satellite industry’s activities in the area of space sustainability and how satcom can help achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): 🛰Space sustainability: GSOA adopted in 2023 a Code of Conduct on Space Sustainability, endorsing industry space sustainability practices that will enable the world to maximize the use of, access to, and benefits from, space resources. GSOA will continue to analyse additional matters and progress its work and efforts in this important area. Read the full paper https://lnkd.in/e9vQqfmc 🌍#SDGs: Satellite communications can transform help transform lives and contribute to the achievement of the SDGs, by increasing education, health, financial inclusion, as well as improving environmental impact and support climate change. Check report & use cases here https://lnkd.in/dzc2Xb4y.   GSOA looks forward to continuing to engage with United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) and other relevant organisations on these important areas.
