Tackling the grand challenges of climate change and biodiversity decline, and finding practical solutions for more resilient places, are shared responsibilities. Both the space technology and spatial planning communities have a significant role to play. FROM SPACE TO PLACE will bring these two innovative sectors together.
Connecting space technology and spatial planning for a resilient future
Join Space4Climate and our members Digital Task Force for Planning to launch our new initiative to bring together expertise in space technology, climate intelligence, spatial planning and the built environment.
The aim of the partnership is to explore how better evidence, technology and cross-sector collaboration can help make our places, infrastructure and communities more resilient to climate change.
Join us at this launch event to meet 20 organisations – 10 from the UK Earth Observation community and 10 from the Planning sector – showcasing a good range of expertise, services and innovations.
This event is aimed at professionals from across the space technology, planning and wider built environment communities.
