Design and Development of Interoperable Cloud Sensor Services to Support Citizen Science Projects

Citizen Observatories are becoming an increasingly popular source of input data in many scientific domains. During the recent EGU2020: Sharing Geoscience Online, Simon Jirka (52°North) presented the ideas behind the European H2020 project Cos4Cloud (Co-designed citizen observatories for the EOS-Cloud). The project aims at providing re-usable services for setting up Citizen Observatories based on the European Open Science (EOS) Cloud. In particular, it will use interoperability standards such as the the Open Geospatial Consortium’s (OGC) Sensor Observation Service (SOS), SensorThings API and Observations and Measurements (O&M).

The Earth Observation Time Series Analysis Toolbox (EOTSA)

The Earth Observation Time Series Analysis Toolbox (EOTSA)

An R package with WPS, Web-Client and Spark integration

Ulrich Leopold (Luxembourg Institue of Science and Technology) and Benedikt Gräler (52°North) recently presented results of the EOTSA project during the EGU2020: Sharing Geoscience Online.

This project was initiated to ease the access and analysis of data provided by the PROBA-V mission exploitation platform (MEP) at the Flemish Institute for Technology & Research (VITO). Project partners developed the toolbox according to the needs of the time series analysis community.

#shareEGU20 Virtual Conference

This year a new series of virtual activities will be held from May 4 – 8, 2020 in place of the physical General Assembly in Vienna. These activities will help foster scientific communication and research by enabling abstract authors to share presentation materials and participate in live text chat discussions throughout the week. 52°North has a number of great topics and will participate in the chat sessions. In addition, we will post our presentations as a blog series “EGU2020” .
