AI-augmented ecosystem for Earth Observation data accessibility with Extended reality User Interfaces for Service and data exploitation.

Project description

AI boosts Earth observation data accessibility

Vast amounts of data are produced each day and become available via various channels, significantly enhancing our lives. The EU-funded EO4EU project will focus on Earth observation (EO) data, aiming to make it accessible to a larger audience, from professionals to citizens. To that end, it will deliver a set of advanced tools and methods leveraging AI and the FAIR data principles that will bridge the gap between domain experts and end users, encouraging wider EO data exploitation. Serverless data processing will further boost the EO data market, allowing comprehensible information modelling for a broad range of data.

Objective

A vast amount of Earth Observation data is produced daily and made available through online services and repositories. Contemporary and historical data can be retrieved and used to power existing applications, to foster innovation and finally improve the EU citizens’ lives. However, an undersizedaudience follows this activity, leaving huge volumes of valuable information unexploited. EO4EU aims to provide innovative tools, methodologies and approaches that would assist a wide spectrum of users, from domain experts and professionals to simple citizens to benefit from EO data. EO4EU strives to deliver dynamic data mapping and labelling based on AI adding FAIRness to the system and data. EO4EU introduces an ecosystem for holistic management of EO data, bridging the gap among domain experts and end users, bringing in the foreground technological advances to address the market straightness towards a wider usage of EO data. EO4EU envisages to boost the Earth Observation data market, providing a digestible data information modeling for a wide range of EO data, through dynamic data annotation and a state-of-the-art serverless processing by leveraging important European Cloud & HPC infrastructures.
