Virtual Observatory Infrastructure for Earth Observation Data

Project description

Intelligent information management
Building a Virtual Observatory: a powerful information system for managing very large amounts of satellite earth observation data.
Earth observation data has increased considerably over the last decades as satellite sensors collect and transmit back to Earth many gigabytes of data per day. The aim of project TELEIOS is to increase the usability of the terabytes of satellite images lying dormant in archives by automating the relevant data management, integration and knowledge discovery tasks. The main innovation of project TELEIOS is the development of a Virtual Observatory infrastructure that goes beyond the current state of the art Earth Observation portals and Image Information Mining systems.
