CEOS Development Environment

WGISS-47

Event Dates: April 29th - May 2nd, 2019

Hosted by: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)

WGISS-47 Attendees in Silver Spring, MD, USA

WGISS-47 Attendees in Silver Spring, MD, USA

Location: Silver Spring, MD (near Washington, DC),  USA

Dates: April 29 through May 2, 2019

The WGISS-47 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, and Technology Exploration). It will also include a full day workshop addressing Future Data Architectures (FDA) elements demonstrations and interoperability analysis, and dedicated working sessions on Cloud Services, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning applied to EO, and on EO ontologies.

The meeting will provide an excellent opportunity for CEOS members 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.

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