Co-chairs: Franz Immler (EC/DG-RTD) & Johan Bodenkamp (EC/DG-CNECT)

Scope and Objectives: The session aims to discuss how we should provide and convert, for the EuroGEO community, massive data produced by space-derived sensors and in-situ monitoring networks, which requires a high level of technical expertise and computing capacity.

• Discuss the planned results and outcomes of recently started Horizon Europe projects in this area
• Shape collaborations between these projects
• Understand recent evolutions on Green Deal data spaces, ESA Network of Resources, Copernicus Data Access Service
• Discuss experiences with European platforms
