GEO-CRADLE @ GEO SYMPOSIUM 2019, 27-29 May, Geneva!

The 2019 Symposium takes place at a critical moment in the development of the 2020-2022 GEO Work Programme. Representatives from GEO’s 70+ Work Programme activities and initiatives are sharing their progress, knowledge and make plans to maximise the impact of Earth observations for sustainable development.

GEO-CRADLE started as a CSA project funded by the H2020 (2016-2018) and it has been upgraded first to a GEO Community Activity and then to a GEO Initiative (decision taken in the last GEO Ministerial 2018 in Kyoto).

Dr. Evangelos Gerasopoulos will present the objectives, the action plan, and the way forward of GEO-CRADLE initiative!

BEYOND @ JISDM 2019 Conference

Dr. Haris Kontoes participated in the JISDM 2019 Conference (4th Joint International Symposium on Deformation Monitoring) as a Keynote speaker
with a presentation entitled "Big Satellite data for ground deformation assessment at global scale". The BEYOND's GeObservatory was introduced at the conference as a groundbreaking service. GeObservatory is activated
automatically in major geohazards events (earthquakes, volcanic activity,landslides, etc) and automatically produces a series of Sentinel-1 based co-event interferograms to map the surface deformation associated with the event.

The GeObservatory service is available at: http://beyond-eocenter.eu/index.php/web-services/geohub ... See more
