CREAF

There is more data than ever before on our changing Earth.The problem is that many people can’t get hold of it, and when they can, it’s in a language they don’t understand. On this ocasion, GEO is coming together at the Cape Town Ministerial Summit to shape our future and respond to the Earth’s calls for action. Join us for a conversation about how to take the best Earth observation data, technology and science and translate it into free, trusted information that makes sense to everyone. CREAF's participation is very wide-ranging, as described below:

06 Nov. 11:00 to 11:10 - Flash talk: In-situ observations requirements database as a tool to search for data that fits the needs of the GEO initiativesWorkshop - Joan Masó (CREAF), Alba Brobia (CREAF).

06 Nov. 11:20 to 11:30 - Flash talk: Adding Citizen Science data in addressing the triple planetary crisis to GEOSS - Joan Masó (CREAF), Uta Wehn (IHE Delft).

06 Nov. 16:00 to 18:00 - Workshop: From Data to Open Knowledge implementation: efforts to grow the value chain

07 Nov. 14:30 to 15:00 - Showcase Event: Measuring Essential Variables with high-level satellite products, in-situ sensors and API standards. Fusionada amb Shunlin Liang   i potser podriem incloure de Carolina Adler (EV de mountains).

07 Nov. 16:00 to 18:00 - Workshop: In-situ data in GEO: challenges and opportunities. Sharing experiences between Regional GEOs.

Earth observations can provide the information needed to unlock action on the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, and drive sustainable development. It’s time to renew our commitment to GEO and forge new partnerships.
