e-shape successfully participated at the GEO Virtual Symposium 2022 in the session "Advancing Open Data within the GWP through New Tools and Services" that was held on May 3.

Our partners from MINES ParisTech, PSL University – ARMINES, shed light on the “e-shape Data Management Plan Tool | A contribution to GEO” within the context of the session’s objective to share the various tools and services that the Data Working Group is establishing to advance the Data Sharing and Data Management Principles in the GWP activities.

Fast Fact:
GEO advocates for the adoption of Open Data and strong Data Management Plans to maximise the use and impact of EO data and tools as well create long-term sustainable solutions.
With the theme ‘Global Action for Local Impact’, the GEO Virtual Symposium 2022 explored how the portfolio of GEO products and services can provide insights and evidence for policy development and decision making, which is expected to lead to local impact over time.
The symposium fostered a productive dialogue among local stakeholders, GEO Work Programme (GWP) activities and other partners to discuss transversal environmental and societal issues, identifying potential integrative EO-based solutions in selected regions, strengthening synergies among GWP activities and enhancing their capabilities of supporting decisions in a real-world scenario.
