NextGEOSS: The Next Generation European Data Hub and Cloud Platform for Earth Observation

This document provides an overview and summary of the UKRAINE project, which aims to foster EGNSS application development and adoption in Ukraine through international cooperation. The 10-organization consortium, led by Valdani Vicari & Associati, is working towards preparing the Ukrainian aviation market for EGNOS, supporting regulated EGNSS applications, and generating innovative logistics solutions. Key achievements include developing guidance for PBN procedures, designing new flight procedures, evaluating optimal locations for EGNSS ground stations, and conducting pilot tests of EGNSS tracking technologies for rail transport of dangerous goods.

The document summarizes the Fundamental Elements 2nd Info Day event in Prague on March 14, 2018. It discusses the Fundamental Elements program, which aims to develop EGNOS and Galileo technologies like chipsets and receivers to facilitate adoption of European GNSS systems. The program has a budget of 111.5 million Euro from 2014-2020, with 32.6 million already committed to 11 existing projects and 15 million published for 6 additional upcoming projects. 7 new projects in areas like safety, antennas, and autonomous driving were also presented at the event. The info day provided an opportunity for dialogue with beneficiaries, and the financing level for grants was raised to 70% of eligible costs based on feedback from the first info day.

Oneweb is raising $500 million to build 900 satellites for global internet access via low Earth orbit broadband by 2019. Airbus will build the satellites, with 65 launches including some from Virgin Galactic and Arianespace rockets. The Project Mustang partnership aims to provide worldwide IoT coverage combining satellite links using a small dedicated terminal communicating through 868/915MHz bands to SIGFOX's terrestrial network. Terran Orbital is launching small satellites at 600km to provide cheap data connections for battery-powered sensors, having applications for disaster relief, agriculture, and military vehicle/troop tracking. The BATS project combines terrestrial ADSL, mobile and satellite systems through an intelligent gateway to provide over

The e-KnoT project aims to increase Europe's competitiveness through developing high-level skills in satellite navigation. It strengthens the interaction between education, research, and industry. Key initiatives include scholarships and internships to connect students and industry, professional training programs, consultancy vouchers for academic support to companies, and events linking research and industry. The project also facilitates collaboration between education and research through specialized PhD training and excellence weeks. The overarching goal is to support the European economy by building a robust satellite navigation knowledge triangle between academia, research, and the private sector.

Aquesta presentació s'emmarca dins de la 40th ELAG (European Library Automation Group) Conferenece, celebrada els dies 6 a 9 de juny a la Royal Library de Copenhaguen. En concret, aquesta comunicació forma part de les "Lightning talks" del dia 9 de juny i se centra en explicar les experiències d'ús de les LOD (Linked Open Data) en el Catàleg Col·lectiu de les Universitats de Catalunya (CCUC).

ESNC 2014 Presentation at the International Kick off in Rotterdam on 15 April Presentation of the GSA Special Prize that is organised by the European GNSS Agency Are you the next European GNSS application entrepreneur? The European GNSS Agency (GSA), a European Union agency, works with the European Commission on a range of activities aimed at helping European entrepreneurs and businesses take commercial advantage of European GNSS (EGNOS and Galileo). The GSA Special Prize rewards the year's most promising application idea for European GNSS. This year's winner will have the opportunity to advance their idea at a suitable incubation centre of their choice within the EU-27 for six months, with an additional six months possible based on an interim evaluation. Sign up from 1 April - 30 June at www.esnc.eu The European Satellite Navigation Competition (ESNC) is an international contest that awards the best services, products, or business innovations using satellite navigation in everyday life. Since 2004, ESNC’s mission has been to spur on development of market-driven applications based on satellite navigation technologies, including EGNOS and Galileo. Within the past nine years more than 6,000 developers took part in the ESNC. This year’s prize pool is worth EUR 1 million including cash, business incubation, coaching, patent consulting, prototyping and marketing support, access to customers and user communities, and publicity in the world’s leading satellite navigation network. Winners of the 25 regional and 7 special prizes will be in the running for the grand prize of EUR 20,000 and six months incubation in a regional centre of choice. Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) enable countless applications here on Earth. Submissions are welcome in any relevant application field, including: Location Based Services, Smart Moving, Safety & Security,Navigation, Health, Energy, Augmented Reality, Gaming, Sports & Tracking, Public & Social Services, Agriculture and many more.

The document discusses OCRE, a project that aims to stimulate adoption of commercial cloud and Earth observation services by the European research community. It does this through two main approaches: 1) aggregating research community requirements and demand into a public procurement tender to establish agreements with capable suppliers, and 2) making €9.5 million available to fund adoption of the selected services. The procurement will be carried out according to EU public procurement directives and establish framework agreements with suppliers for services like IaaS, PaaS, and Earth observation. Research institutions will then be able to purchase resources through the framework agreements. The project will also drive integration of the selected services with the European Open Science Cloud portal.

This document discusses developing a web-based 3D visualization of open land use and agricultural data layers over a terrain model. Specifically, it involves integrating the Cesium 3D module into the HSLayers NG library to allow perspective views of open data. This will be demonstrated with a use case visualizing detailed farm data from Rostenice farm over local and EU-wide digital terrain and surface models, along with open layers and farm-specific data on yield potential, vegetation indices, and machinery tracks.

The document discusses how the space and non-space communities can engage for mutual benefit. It provides an overview of the European Space Agency's (ESA) European Centre for Satellite Applications and Telecommunications (ECSAT) and its activities in areas like telecommunications, earth observation, exploration, and business incubation. ECSAT aims to develop commercial space-based products and services and spin space technologies off into other sectors. The document also summarizes several ESA programs that support industry competitiveness and public-private partnerships, including ARTES for telecommunications and IAP for integrated applications. It provides examples of how satellite communications and earth observation data can benefit sectors like transportation, climate monitoring, and mobile networks.
