WGISS and WGCV Attendees

The 45th Meeting of the Working Group on Information Systems & Services (WGISS) 

Hosted by: Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE, Brazil)

Location: São José dos Campos, Brazil 

The WGISS-45 meeting will be of significant interest not only to CEOS members but also to users of CEOS data and services. This meeting will focus on the four main domains addressed in WGISS:

  • Data Preservation and Stewardship
  • Data Interoperability and Use
  • Data Discovery and Access
  • Technology Exploration

It will also include a full-day workshop on Earth Observation Future Data Architectures and on an introduction of the Copernicus Data and Information Access System (DIAS) for CEOS.

The meeting will provide an excellent opportunity for CEOS Agencies to present their achievements and share results and lessons learned with other agencies and to contribute to the definition and shaping of future data architectures, standards, and approaches for making data available to users in the most effective way possible.

It will also include a dedicated joint session with the CEOS Working Group on Calibration and Validation (WGCV) to address topics of common interest and the CEOS 2018-20 Work Plan Objectives/Deliverables defined as an outcome of the last CEOS Plenary.
