GMES and Africa Access to Data and Products : Copernicus cooperation arrangement workshop, 11-12 Oct. 2022
The workshop is organised to take stock of the state-of-play of access to Copernicus Sentinel data and service information by African Institutions including in the context of GMES and Africa programme.
Access to data is a critical element for application development and it may need to evolve to satisfy the user demands. On the 12th of June 2018, a cooperation arrangement was signed in Brussels between the European Commission and the African Union Commission to facilitate the access to Copernicus data and information.
The objective of the workshop is to collect African institutions views on the present and potential future developments of Copernicus data and information access, in particular with regard to existing challenges, evolving technologies and future needs.
The expected outcomes are:
- inventory of the data and information needs,
- identification of the current data and information access bottlenecks and challenges,
- definition of potential technical solutions and a roadmap for improving the current data and information access conditions.
The workshop is addressed to African institutions, universities or private companies with existing experience or interest in accessing Copernicus data and information, as well as partner organisations involved in the digital transformation in Africa.
