The Golden Age of European Earth Observation
The golden age of European Earth Observation is here. Copernicus is an outstanding program but there is more to this recent success that goes beyond the terabytes of data delivered to the ground daily. This panel will provide context to these efforts and highlight some suggestions to (a) shift Europe’s ‘grantprepreneurs’ to become ‘entrepreneurs,’ (b) the opportunity to attract ‘scale-ups’ to Europe, and (c) initiate the shift toward procuring commercial services.
