A cyberinfrastructure for a better use of environmental information
In recent decades, Earth Observation technology has experienced a sharp growth. Observation and monitoring networks generate more and more data and current management systems are getting overloaded with information. As a result, research and decision making are slowed down. The European Open-Earth-Monitor project (OEMC) plans to design a cyberinfrastructure that can easily work with these large volumes of data.
How to improve the EU's drinking water supply by monitoring lakes
Monitoring the extent of lake effluents provides valuable information on the risk of pollution and contributes to improving drinking water production and preserving environmental sustainability. This is the aim of the European WQeMS project, which seeks to improve the supply of drinking water to all member states of the EU by monitoring the quality of lake water, through Earth observation tools.

Citizen science, reinforced thanks to Ground Truth 2.0 and its methodology
Creating and validating a methodology to generate citizen science observatories is the common thread of the European project Ground Truth 2.0, which has worked with 4 observatories in Europe (Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands and Sweden) and 2 in Africa (Kenya and Zambia) in actual operating conditions.
